Towards a Framework for Sustainable Knowledge Management in Organisations in Developing Countries

Adekunle Okunoye, Towards a Framework for Sustainable Knowledge Management in Organisations in Developing Countries. In: Human Choice and Computers: Issues of Choice and Quality of Life in the Information Society, 225-238, Kluwer Academic Publisher, 2002.

Abstract:

Several models and frameworks abound to guide knowledge management (KM) implementation and strategy in organisations. These are mostly based on experiences and studies in Western industrialised countries that are already becoming knowledge economies. Application of these models and frameworks in developing countries might not yield expected results. For organisations in developing countries to participate in this new economy, there is need to understand the issues of KM in their local context. Towards this goal, we present the results of an empirical study of KM in six research organisations in sub-Saharan Africa. Requirements for a context specific framework for KM in organisations in developing countries are then presented.
