Analysis of Knowledge Risks Identified in the Brazilian Space Program: A Methodological Framework for Verification and Mitigation of Risks in the Light of Knowledge Governance

Brazilian scientific and technological research in the space area covers a diversity of themes so that its results are applied in several areas, such as earth observation, fire control, climate change, telecommunications, and security, among others. By providing useful products and services for society, economy, and industry, one perceives its relevance and the need to improve Brazil's space research. Thus, given its social and economic importance, this project aims to structure, based on scientific and situated knowledge, a framework that could help to mitigate the knowledge risks identified in the diverse types of organizations and sectors that are part of the Brazilian Space Program. This work in progress will try to address this problem by providing a methodological framework based on Knowledge Governance tools and it is intended to homogenize and mitigate the knowledge risks identified in the diverse types of organizations that are part of the Brazilian Space sector. The methodological approach to be used in the research will be predominantly qualitative, with possible quantitative treatment when analyzing the collected data used to develop the framework. This paper identify, analyze and catalogue, based on the distinct categories found in the literature, the types of knowledge risks observed in organizations …

Application of Big Data Analytics in Precision Medicine: Lesson for Ethiopia (open access)

Application of Big Data Analytics in Precision Medicine: Lesson for Ethiopia

Precision medicine is an emerging approach for disease treatment and prevention that considers individual variability in genes, environment, and lifestyle for each person. Big data analytics (BDA) using cutting-edge technologies helps to design models that can diagnose, treat and predict diseases. In Ethiopia, healthcare service delivery faces many challenges specifically in relation to prescribing the right medicine to the right patient at the right time. Thus, patients face challenges ranging from staying on treatment plans longer, and then leaving treatment, and finally dying of complications. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to explore the trends, challenges, and opportunities of applying BDA in precision medicine globally and take lessons for Ethiopia through a systematic literature review of 19 peer reviewed articles from five databases. The findings indicated that cancer in general, epilepsy, and systemic diseases altogether are areas currently getting big attention. The challenges are attributed to the nature of health data, failure in collaboration for data sharing, ethical and legal issues, interoperability of systems, poor knowledge skills and culture, and poor infrastructure. Development of modern technologies, experimental technologies and methods, cloud computing, Internet of Things, social networks and Ethiopia’s government initiative to promote private technological firms could be an …

Changing Landscape of Scholarly Communications: Open Access

The 17th International Conference on Knowledge Management was held in the historic city of Potsdam, Germany. Since the conference was among the first post-pandemic face to face conferences, the overall theme of the 17th edition of the ICKM conference rightly focused on “Knowledge, Uncertainty and Risks: From individual to global scale” at different levels of analysis and agency. This document highlighted one of the panels and the panelists argue that open access to scholarly knowledge production should be the modus operandi in the time and age we live in. Open access to knowledge is critical not just to accelerate advances in finding solutions to societal issues, but also to meet the growing expectations around higher education institutions’ social responsibilities in times of uncertainties.

Collaborative Research: Place Attachment in Mitigation and Recovery: A Mixed Methods Study of Residential Adjustment Following Wildfires (open access)

Collaborative Research: Place Attachment in Mitigation and Recovery: A Mixed Methods Study of Residential Adjustment Following Wildfires

Data management plan for the grant, "Collaborative Research: Place Attachment in Mitigation and Recovery: A Mixed Methods Study of Residential Adjustment Following Wildfires." This study focuses on understanding how place attachment influences the decisions people make after disasters, specifically residential decisions about where they live and whether they invest in measures that reduce their risk to future disasters. Using three California counties as study sites, and building on a pilot study in these same, wildfire-affected communities, the research team uses photovoice method and phenomenological analyses to develop a deep, contextually grounded understanding of the role of place attachment in residential decisions.

Comparing Knowledge Management and  Wisdom Management (open access)

Comparing Knowledge Management and Wisdom Management

To provide solutions to the world’s global challenges, there is an urgent demand for wise organizations, wise leadership, wise workers, and most importantly, for wise actions. Since the mid- 1990s, Knowledge Management (KM) as a discipline and practice has emerged internationally and it went through several phases of development. Similarly, in the last four decades, we experience a growth in wisdom research, and in intense discourses about Wisdom Management (WM) as a possible venue for dealing with wicked problems. The dilemma is, whether the present phase of KM would be able to address the global problems of the world. Therefore, this paper seeks to answer the question if WM will complement or replace KM. The purpose is to compare KM and WM. The research methodology is an explorative approach of their main characteristics and concepts in a selected range of literature. The findings are presented in a framework to show the similarities and differences of KM and WM. Keywords: Knowledge Management (KM), Wisdom Management (WM), phases of KM, wisdom economy, wise leaders, wisdom workers, global problems of the world.
