| Innovation in ICT for Human Development Cooperation 2.0
Posted by Lucie Lamoureux
COOPERATION 2.0 is an international space for meeting, reflecting and building awareness about the need to promote and integrate the use of ICT in development policies, programmes and projects. In its first edition, it tried to set a national and international reference for ICT and networked Development Cooperation. It facilitated the exchange of experiences among cooperation agents to generate greater knowledge about ICT applications in the work of Cooperation, granting visibility to experiences under way.
The second edition, Cooperation 2.0 2009, follows along in continuity and will focus this time on the issue of "Innovation". One of the event's topic is Knowledge Management.

| Measuring Knowledge in the World Economies: KAM 2008 Booklet
Posted by Lucie Lamoureux
The Knowledge Assessment Methodology (KAM) is an interactive benchmarking tool created by the World Bank's Knowledge for Development Program to help countries identify the challenges and opportunities they face in making the transition to the knowledge-based economy.
The KAM consists of 83 structural and qualitative variables for 140 countries to measure their performance on the 4 Knowledge Economy (KE) pillars: Economic Incentive and Institutional Regime, Education, Innovation, and Information and Communications Technologies. The KAM also derives a country’s overall Knowledge Economy Index (KEI) and Knowledge Index (KI).

| Knowledge Creation for Development course (10-12 December 2008)
Posted by Lucie Lamoureux
"Knowledge has become one of the key factors for the success of an organisation. In many organisations, the knowledge gained through daily activities is untapped and gets lost when people leave. The value of knowledge in an organisation grows when it is shared between its staff. But how can you create conditions and systems that foster knowledge creation and its use in day-to-day activities? MDF Training & Consultancy has developed this course to help you improve performances of your organisation by effective use of shared knowledge."
