KM aims to do the best use

Dear participants,

I am Ratan Budhathoki, working for Nepal Water for Health (NEWAH)as Information and Knowledge Manager.

To me, Knowledge Management means, knowing about what information, knowledge and resources do we have? What exists within the organization and in the sector? Then making the information and knowledge accessible to them who needs it and encourage them to "make use" of such information and knowledge to help solve their problems. This also indicates that effective information sharing and dissemination process could help to avoid duplications and provide opportunities to learn from others.

Knowledge Management requires people, organizations, target groups, goal, objectives, systems, information, knowledge and financial elements to be happened. KM aims to do the best use of these elements to achieve the goals and objectives at personal, organizational and community level.
