Introducing Knowledge Federation
From Knowledge Federation
- organization of knowledge resources analogous to political federation
- practice supporting such organization
- (when capitalized) community developing knowledge federation
Knowledge federation has potential to transform key human activities — in a similar way as the steam engine once revolutionized transportation, and as the conveyor belt shaped industrial production:
- IT development
- social creation of truth and meaning
- handling contemporary issues
- education
- academic research
- journalism
Knowledge Federation community self-organizes to develop knowledge federation and realize its potential. Initially, the community is structured as a federation of eight projects:
- Journalism for the 21st Century project creates a federated model of journalism by developing the Knowledge Federation Media Channel
- Knowledge Federation Course project creates a globally federated education model by developing the Knowledge Federation Course
- Knowledge Federation Research project creates the post-discipline by organizing knowledge federation research
- [[Foundations of Knowledge Work|] project works with the foundations for social creation of truth and worldview, while developing a showcase of knowledge federation by federating Dejan Rakovi's creativity-related results
- Knowledge Federation Stakeholders project recreates sponsoring while securing support for Knowledge Federation
- Domain Map Object project creates a tool for organizing knowledge and synthesizing meaning
- Value Matrix Object project creates a tool for separating the gems from the glut
- Hosting Team project creates a federated approach to leadership and governance while hosting the Knowledge Federation people and activities
We envision two more projects: F-Governance and Knowledge Federation Arts Gallery, and limit the total number to twelve.
To make them viral, Knowledge Federation structures its projects as game-changing games — engaging social activities with clear tasks and goals and large possible gains.
