Sharing our Knowledge

Let me introduce myself. For those of you who don’t already know me, I’m Veronica Hart, the Co-ordinator of the C3 Project. That's Community Cohesion Centres, of course. Knowledge Management. That’s what this blog’s all about. We’ve taken the idea from the business community, where they recognise that knowledge is wealth. You might call it ‘The Knowledge Theory of Value’. A lot of knowledge is unconscious; you have to dig deep to find it—sort of like archaeology—and the blog encourages you to do that. More importantly, it allows us to share it amongst ourselves. Too many enterprises in the past have failed through the egotistical barriers people put up to sharing knowledge; we aim to break down that cycle of selfishness that blights communities. We’re raising the goalposts and throwing a curved ball into the equation. For us at the Centre, the principal form of knowledge is emotional knowledge and it leads to empowerment. So let me encourage you to take advantage of this golden opportunity and share your Knowledge with each other.
