I’ve been lurking on OpenMRS forums for years, but I am trying to up my OpenMRS (and Bamhni) involvement and knowledge. I attended the Uganda meeting in 2016, and I just completed a 4 day training with Jembi in Cape Town. I teach a Digital Health course at Hopkins where we cover the broader topic of EHR applications in global health, and I work at Jhpiego (which is affiliated with Hopkins) where I have for 10+ years advocated for deeper consideration of EHRs and open source approaches. Jhpiego has OpenMRS activities in at least 2 countries, and I hope we can expand this in the coming years. At this point I’m mostly an OpenMRS sponge, but I hope that I might be able to make contributions to OpenMRS, even if by making indirect contributions through inspiring students to dig deeper into OpenMRS.
