| description | In modern organisational structures knowledge management
practices consist of knowledge generation, capture, sharing and application. The
organisations emphasize on codification and documentation of implicit
knowledge and transform it to explicit form. Indigenous communities however
have much less codified knowledge relying mainly on oral and tacit form. The
communities have their own processes of storage, leveraging, sharing and
applying knowledge which is different from knowledge management processes
of corporations and research organizations due to the oral and tacit structures of
these processes. In this paper we present a model for formulating strategic
directions for an indigenous knowledge management system. We have designed
a knowledge management assessment tool for Indigenous Knowledge
Management Systems (IKMS) which has been tested in remote community in
Bario, Sarawak. On the bases of our assessment of IKMS, community capacity
and resources, we have developed a strategic map for IKMS in Bario. This
work serves as an extension to the previous literature on designing the Balanced
Scorecard for IKMS. |
