Join us for a day of KM4Dev community conversations. We'll convene in Open Space to consider where we are and where we want to head as a community. We'll also have space for KM/KS topical conversations and a lot of fellowship. The Core group will also hold an open meeting the night before - we'll post the location once it is decided. Friday night we'll all go out for a no-host (each pays their own) dinner. There is a DGroups list for the event at …See More
Sounds great Nancy! First week of March for a US KM4DEV meeting sounds awesome! When you have a date, let me know and I will plan it. Are others up for a F2F in early March?
Hi Natalie - no plans to be in DC in the immediate future, although would love the opportunity for a trip. Will let you know if that happens. And do let me know if you are planning to be in NYC and we could organize an informal meeting with some of…
This is a really interesting Ian, that UNICEF has positions dedicated to both the tacit and explicit knowledge parts of KM..and that they recognize there is a difference! I reluctantly work more on the recorded part, but prefer the tacit sharing FAR…

Thanks for starting the group and kicking off the round of introductions.
I'm Ian Thorpe woring on Knowledge Management in UNICEF which is headquartered in New York.
I'm mainly focussing on the "tacit knowledge" parts…
The KM4Dev Jobs Centre is a community marketplace to post job ads related to KM for Development and for members who are looking for work and want to offer their services.
yes that rings a bell! and our network was down for lots of today sorry about that but we seem to be connected to the outside world again so you should be able to download the document.
Hi Natalie, was a pleasure meeting you and to think and brainstorm and reflect and question and requestion about M&E of KS initiatives. I think it's key to visualise our KS activities and achievements of our contributions to Dev disussions and change. Nadia
Hi Natalie,
Indeed a little person in my family made this while playing with my iPhone :-)
She wants one soooooo badly but has to wait two years to become 16 and pay for it her own. Anyway, good it makes you smile.
best, Jaap
Hi Natalie, was great to meet you again too. Thanks for your interest in our work on Theory of Change for our work with the IDS Knowledge Services. The document can be downloaded from http://www.ids.ac.uk/go/knowledge-services/about-us/evaluation As I said it tries to make links between what we do in our info knowlege management work and our supergoal of povery alleviation and social justice! Its based on theory, what we've learned from feedback and has all the assumptions on which we base this thinking spelled out. Woudl be interested to hear what you think!
Hola Natalie! I absolutely agree, we need at least two such networking meetings per year. They are so good! Feels great to meet like-minded people and learn in an open (and confusiastic) sort of a way. :-)
About doing away with flu, my way is three Echinaceas/day, two or three propolises (natural antibiotic)/day and if needed one aspirin/vit C ... and lots of tea and lemon. Here is what I use to get Echinacea and propolis, etc: http://www.foreverliving.com/ ... Has been very good, so far. Totally natural (apparently, ... hopefully!).
See you soon and take care. Yes, let's keep in touch. Best, Nadia
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad that you enjoyed the workshop. I am sure that my dark outlook is related to my sickness... when the chills, runny nose and couch goes, all will seem much better ;-)
I have just subscribed you to the Core group Dgroup. Please let me know if you didn't receive a message letting you know this. Hope to see you again soon! Best, Lucie
It was nice to chat at the KM4Dev workshop in Brussels Natalie ... Hope we will get to soon meet again. Look forward to your KM4Dev d-group posts (I've caught a few). Take care, Nadia

I think most of what we need to do will evolve IN Brussels at the gathering. I should send an email to everyone. As for chocolate... hm, how to find time for THAT! I kn ow a few good places.
Hey! I thought I was already in here and actually was shocked when I couldn't log in... I think when the new website was launched I was supposed to do something to keep my profile active... In any case it works now! To answer your question, I don't think I will be in Brussels this year. Maybe next year I will have the funds to make the trip. Surprisingly the problem is time. I will be in Accra, DC and then in Bamako all over the course of 3 weeks in October - November so I think I would be wiped out! But I really want to attend!!! I will see what I can do...
Talk to you on Skype one day!!
