"This report presents the discussions and findings of the Ad Hoc Expert Group Meeting on Knowledge Systems for Development held by the Division for Public Administration and Development Management from 4-5 September 2003. The meeting gathered together 10 eminent experts--academics and practitioners--and over 30 representatives of the UN member state delegations, other entities of the UN system and partner organizations to discuss various facets of the knowledge society. In addition, the meeting served to advise DPADM on its particular niche in advancing the knowledge society. This report attempts to capture the rich debate that took place, some of the challenges raised, and recommendations on where greater focus should be placed." |
