Community is the heart and soul of our initiative. Active participation from all members across the world is vital to ensuring our product is widely adopted, our users professionally supported, and our platform continually extended.

Connect Online!

Meet other community members and support others on our Slack Channels, and Mailing Lists.

Lead your Community!

Each of you have the opportunity to lead the community – you can start or join a local Mifos chapter or be a part of one of our global leadership councils.

Attend an Event!

Each year we host our global Mifos Summit to unite the whole community. Local chapters also host regular events in addition to our online weekly user & developer meetings and webinars.

Annual Mifos Summit

Each year we host an international conference that brings together our entire community for a week-long gathering to network with our peers, discover new innovations, immerse ourselves in training, and collectively plan for the upcoming year. Learn more at https://summit.mifos.org.

Online Meetups

Each month we host a range of online meetups for our users and developers. Each meeting provides an opportunity to share experiences with others, ask any questions or brainstorm any new topics, and watch demos of the latest features being release or code being developed.

Leadership

  • Mifos Chapters

    Mifos chapters are volunteer-driven groups that promote technology-enabled financial inclusion and empower their local communities to use, collaborate, build, and grow the Mifos X platform together.

  • Mifos Community Council

    The Mifos Community Council is neutral governing body of community members that can uniformly represent the interests and needs of the entire community as it grows. It works to ensure accountability, representation, a participatory culture, neutrality and transparency, unity, and mission-alignment across our community.

Collaboration Tools

  • Mifos Slack

    Mifos Slack is our primary communication tool it is where our volunteers and team collaborate and work.

  • Community Mailing Lists

    Mailing lists are still used across the community, although these are gradually being phased out as we use Slack as our primary communication channel. We host both a users and a developers mailing list for discussion and support around using and developing the product. Sign up for the lists and post or email your question to begin a discussion.

  • Live Chatroom

    We have now closed our live chatrooms and instead migrated to Mifos Slack
