The Impact Alliance partners with USAID in the Knowledge Management Impact Challenge Initiative

The Knowledge Management (KM) Impact Challenge will bring people together to develop better methods to meet the challenges of figuring out how to effectively measure the results and impact of investing in KM and learning, focus our efforts and resources, and make the case for KM to senior managers.

The Impact Alliance partnered with USAID to facilitate the KM Impact Challenge initiative that has three main components-- the Collaborative discovery, the Online Challenge, and the KM Share Fair-- where practitioners and organizations will come together to discover, document and share effective KM impact assessment practices.  This will be a collaborative learning process around what works and what doesn’t; identifying effective practical measurement tools for assessing the impact of KM investments and advance standards of good practice.

We invite you to share with us your favorite articles or web links to valuable resources on the topic.

For details about the KM Impact Challenge initiative and to learn more on how you can participate please read the Overview document.  Please consider that the KM Impact Challenge web site is still under construction and will be launching in the next weeks, so check back soon for updates on the date for its official launch. 

Make sure you are following us on twitter and on facebook where we will be sharing more information about the KM Impact Challenge initiative.
