Our Mission
Making it easy to discover, support, and contribute to impactful technology projects for the Philippines.
We act as a consolidated hub for community‑led initiatives and open source projects that aim to improve public services, transparency, and digital infrastructure across the Philippines.
What we do
Curate and showcase
We maintain a curated directory of open source projects that address real challenges in the Philippines, making it easy for developers, organizations, and citizens to discover impactful work.
Connect communities
We bridge the gap between developers, organizations, and government agencies to foster collaboration and knowledge sharing across the technology ecosystem.
Support contributors
We provide resources, guidance, and platforms for developers and organizations to share their work and find meaningful ways to contribute to technology.
Promote transparency
We advocate for open source approaches to government technology, promoting transparency, accountability, and citizen participation in digital governance.
Our approach
OpenBayan operates as a community-driven initiative, independent of any single organization or government entity. We believe that the best technology emerges from collaborative efforts between diverse stakeholders.
By maintaining this directory and fostering connections within the community, we aim to accelerate the development and adoption of technology solutions that truly serve the Filipino people.
