Quarta Setembro 10 00:57:03 UTC 2014

Alguém aqui conhece esse projeto ou pessoas de Harvard envolvidas? Isso é
novo? Carol, Abdo?

Vejam meu grifo da descrição abaixo e links. Aqui
<http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/openeconomies/okn/> diz que é dirigido pela
Diane Cabell. Antes de contatar os embaixadores da Open Knowledge nos EUA e
a própria Diane, verificando se alguém conhece o projeto ou se podemos
discutir possíveis formas de colaborar. :) Por exemplo, um programa com
fellowships para estudantes de pós-graduação com temas relacionados a
desenvolvimento aberto ('open development

pode ser fantástico.

*Open Knowledge* refers collectively to the growing number of Berkman
Center *projects relating to the exchange of information between northern
and southern nations*. These range from the establishment of a global
database of public domain information on health care, agriculture and other
topics of critical need in remote areas to the creation of
cross-disciplinary networks for scholars from various fields to coordinate
the preparation of advisories for key ministries and governments on ICT
policy decisions.

Open Knowledge Network <http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/openeconomies/okn/>
uses a P2P design in order to adopt the Internet and translation services
as part of the delivery loop of useful information needed in rural areas.
Local knowledge about farming and health care practices that has value
beyond the community can be offered to others, however distant, facing
similar concerns. Public domain information from advanced research
institutions can be deposited on the system, then edited and redistributed
through tele-centers, cell phones, handbills or post. OKN is now being
implemented in sub-Sahara Africa with support from various sources
including the UK Department for International Development.
