WASHuddle focussing on KS/KM

join
Are you passionate about washing hands with soap and addressing innovative communication in all its forms in the WASH sector (you may include IWRM for sustained WASH services)? Join us!
Register your interest here, join the gang on the Ning thing: WASHhuddle
about what?
Add or send to me any topic you would like to address in the WASHuddle!
We propose to look at:
1. learning and sharing experiences at various and multi-levels, horizontal and vertical. IRC’s experience here is with Multi-Stakeholder Platforms (MSP) a.k.a. the Learning Alliance Approach;
2. innovative ways of communication for learning and sharing. IRC would like to learn about using mobile phones and sms for citizens involvement in WASH sector monitoring and demanding good governance;
3. meta level access to resources on the web. How to use social bookmarking (delicious tags) and related forms of social networking (LinkedIn, Facebook and their groups, Twitter (groups and tags such as #wash4dev) in an effective and user-friendly way.
4. mapping as a visual way to make complexities in the WASH sector better understandable and easier to analyse.
5. what are existing or new community of practice (CoP) on KS/KM WASHuddling? Is there a scope of making links among them? IRC has run and runs a number of platforms meant to become true CoPs, for example http://groups.google.com.gh/group/washsectorlearning
6. Document and share information by responding to the inter-huddle questions below.

Inter huddle questions

Here a set of questions that could be useful to address to facilitate exchange with other huddles. This basic set of questions, which we expect all huddles will address, can be complemented by other issues or experiences huddles may wish to share with others.
The idea is that each huddle will document in various shareable ways (see sharing opportunities and methods offered during the KM4dev event) to allow exchange with other huddles.

Proposed set of questions
1. What are the top 3 (max. 5) questions or ideas related to KS / KM in your huddle that you address? Indicate whether you offer to share and/or request to learn from other huddles.
2. In your huddle, what are the projects / case studies / examples you wish to share with other huddles. Indicate the KS / KM approach / method / tool and how it serves the needs in your huddle. In line with this we might want to highlight specific trends and challenges that are affecting our huddle and for which KM/KS could have a positive impact?
3. Have you identified what you think may be factors/ideas that influence KS/KM in your huddle domain? Any which do you think may be more or less universal?
4. How do you think that what you are talking about in your huddle might relate to other huddles?
5. Experiences with inter-lingual / cultural experiences with KS/KM learning/sharing: what works, what doesn't, cost/benefit. Did we ever come about methods in one language that don't or do work in other languages? E.g. are some methods language/culture specific?

Till soon, Peter

Many thanks for adding me to the KM4Dev09 Water huddle. I wish if I could made to attend the entire session, but sometimes trading off between options available becomes difficult. I will continuously monitor the activities and will be glad to share something useful when necessary.

Sorry. The earlier message was incomplete! We would like to share lessons on 'Making WAH data work.' It is about disseminating WASH data to make them useful and effective. This is basically what our monitoring platform is doing in Ghana and it is really working!

Hi Emmanuel, Hi Shamila, good to see you both here! Great to have you in Brussels. Have a look at the very draft agenda and let me know what YOU would like to address in terms of KS/KM for WASH
Comment by Emmanuel Addai on September 2, 2009 at 6:00pm
It promises to be an interesting group! I'd be glad to share lessons from the Water and Sanitation Monitoring Platform in Ghana.
