Forming Groups of Related Projects

In the afternoon we spend some time sorting out the project posters to come up with a number of groups that could work together on their projects throughout the workshop. This was not an easy task: Should we group the projects by tools, by audiences, by themes?

We ended up with 5 groups who’s participants defined their area of common interest as follows:

1. Best KS practices. KS about KS
2. Intranets
3. Web sites for interactive information sharing
4. Get buy-in and make most out of communities
5. Foster communities based on regional priorities

Those groups then looked deeper into their commonalities through conversations and individual reflections on their project’s strength, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT). Here we see Vanessa, Nicole, Jean and Yuan using the project posters for their conversation:
