Information, knowledge management and collaboration in the community and international development sector – how do we get people to communicate openly together?

As I begin to enter a new career as the knowledge manager for engineers without borders Australia, I have been reflecting upon my experiences as a volunteer within the organisation. In Queensland, we recently tuned a strong focus towards an initiative called ‘local projects’ and with this, begun to actively network with other non-profit organisations around the region and country.
