Knowledge Sharing

 

According to Wikipedia: "Knowledge sharing is an activity through which knowledge (i.e. information, skills, or expertise) is exchanged among people, friends, or members of a family, a community (e.g. Wikipedia) or an organization. The sharing of knowledge constitutes a major challenge in the field of knowledge management because some employees tend to resist sharing their knowledge with the rest of the organization."

 

In recent years, we have seen a massive interest among development communities in knowledge management, then knowledge sharing, and perhaps now learning - all associated somehow with information and data access management.
