KS/KM in a World Of Change - An Open KM4Dev Community Gathering, Brussels, October 6-8, 2009

KS/KM in a World Of Change - An Open KM4Dev Community Gathering, Brussels, October 6-8, 2009

We are in a time of significant global change. Climate change impacts agriculture, water, health and other development areas. Global financial crises affect the poor and everything they need. How can knowledge sharing and knowledge management help us address these complex and interrelated issues? Join us for three days of thinking and working together on these issues at the 2009 KM4Dev annual gathering. Over the three days, we will have both separate theme focused conversations and then we will weave them together to think about the role of KM/KS separately and collectively.
