Core Group

KM4Dev is largely a volunteer effort. As we grew, it became clear that we needed some sort of governance group to support the community and help respond to its needs. Hence, the Core Group was created in May 2004.
The Core group interacts via a Dgroup --  km4dev-coregroup[AT]dgroups.io. You can contact Core Group members at this address or by writing to contact[AT]km4dev.org. 

All Core group meetings are documented here. More information about the Core Group is available on the KM4Dev wiki.

Currently, the Core group consists of community members acting in a voluntary capacity as a steering committee for KM4Dev. Core group members contribute their time and energy towards supporting the needs of KM4Dev members and building the community. The Core group terms of reference are found here.

Bonjour à tous et à toutes. Je suis Responsable KM dans une Organisation internationale basée au Togo. J'aimerais mettre en place un projet de gestion des connaissance dans les domaine de la décentralisation et gouvernance locale et de l'agriculture au Togo pour les ONG nationales. Je suis à la recherche de partenaires ayant la même vision.

Dear fellow KM4Dev'ers,

Looking for assistance in benchmarking our KM Strategy at the Road Accident Fund in South Africa. We have implemented a KM Programme over the past 3 years and would like to review our strategy and focus. Anyone that can share with us some insights into your KM strategy, pitfalls as well as quick wins and successes?  Will really appreciate it!

Dear Km4Dev group,

I am a research student at Tokyo University of Agriculture. My main research is on the sustainability of Micro Finance Institutions (MFIs) in Ethiopia. I couldn't able to access MIX database for raw data about Ethiopia, b/c it needs membership password. Is there anyone who can help me on this regard. Thank you.

Hi guys...I have just joined the group and I need some advice. I work for a Financial/insurance company and I have been given a concept to establish KM in the R and D unit. With my little knowledge of the subject I felt this would be the correct platform for advice. Would any of you send me a KM strategy that I can model with? I have recently sent a request to IT for Enterprise Content Management - KM portal and I have been requested to submit a business requirement document. Would you have a template of such? please respond to zweli.ndayi@gmail.com

Comment by BENJAMIN ABUGRI on January 7, 2013 at 12:59pm

Greetings colleagues and thanks for accepting me on board. I will need some templates or information to help me design a KM policy for my organization. I am new in the KM community and looking up for your support to work effectively. Thanks

Comment by Lucie Lamoureux on March 20, 2012 at 11:37am

Dear all,

Apologies for the non-response to those who have offered support. The new Core Group terms of reference have just been drafted and sent to the KM4dev discussion group (please join the email discussion if you haven't done so, this is where the interaction is!) : http://wiki.km4dev.org/wiki/index.php/Draft_Terms_of_Reference_%28T...

As mentioned in the ToR, you don't have to be on the Core group to be an active member of KM4Dev. You can still take initiatives and volunteer to take the lead on activities, if you find the Core group responsibilities are too much.

I will be writing to follow-up with those who still are interested in being on the Core group, and those who would like to volunteer for individual activities.

I fully support Naina for the core group membership.
Comment by Naina Pandita on July 26, 2011 at 11:28am
I do not see a representative from Asia.  With my expertise, I would request that I am considered as a core group member.
Comment by Anwar Dafa-Alla on June 28, 2011 at 10:59pm
Hi, I'm glad to be here.
Comment by ALEJANDRO BALANZO on May 11, 2011 at 10:56pm
Hi everyone, I am willing to help the core group.
Comment by John Smith on April 16, 2011 at 7:18pm

I would really like to encourage everyone in the core group (or people who have retired from the core group) to participate in CPsquare's "field trip"... it will be a great opportunity to learn about KM4Dev history and learning dynamics.  Here's more information about the event:

Drop me a line at john.smith@learningalliances.net if you'd like more details.  Thanks!
