Johannesburg, South Africa, November 29th to December 1st, 2006 The World Bank Institute, in cooperation with the Global Development Network (GDN) and the Development Bank of Southern Africa, is organizing the 2nd in the series of sub-regional knowledge management workshops across Sub-Saharan Africa. We invite representatives of government, nonprofit, private and university-based African research institutes and networks to participate. The workshop aims at strengthening the operations of Southern-African research institutes and networks. It will expose them to knowledge management concepts, tools and approaches, and help them to develop Action Plans to enhance their organizational capacity. This workshop comes as a follow-up to the “Knowledge Sharing for Development: Africa Regional Program Workshop” that was held in Cairo in February 2005 and the “Knowledge Management Capacity for African Research Institutes and Networks: East Africa Workshop” that was held in Kampala, Uganda in June 2006.
