Knowledge Management in ADB
Asian Development Bank | June 2004
Abstract
This paper reviews the changing context of ADB’s role in catalyzing knowledge for innovation and development. It discusses ADB’s knowledge processes, and identifies key challenges and opportunities for moving ADB’s knowledge agenda forward in a phased manner. The paper presents a framework that lays down the goals, purposes, actions, outputs, and outcomes necessary for this transformation, starting with improving the cultural and procedural aspects of knowledge management within ADB. This will enable ADB to reach out to its external stakeholders more systematically. The paper also discusses the organizational and resource implications of implementing the KM framework.
