Hundreds of activists are encouraged to participate with his or her individual skills helping the movement grow. As we are working globally to support local economies our approach is to follow a glocal organizational model mainly with global chat rooms and physcial local nodes.
We are constantly looking for skilled people who want to help in developing this beautiful movement. Technical discussions take place in the FairCoin-developer Telegram chat group, which is mirrored to fairchat (supports reading without login and automatic translation when logged in) and to xmpp/jabber at faircoindevelopment@salas.daemons.it . For general questions read the "Ask Anything"-group on fairchat or on Telegram . Once a year we meet at a summer or wintercamp.
We maintained a list of all chat groups of the FairCoop ecosystem (2017-2019) as well as a map with all existing local nodes - but this is not up-to-date anymore If you cannot find a local node in your area we are happy to help and support you in setting one up. Ask your question here:
