Dear KM4Dev members,

We are excited to launch the focused group conversation on transboundary learning and innovation. In the next three weeks, we will be sharing lessons and experiences of knowledge sharing beyond boundaries in financial inclusion, peace building and innovative development models. We look forward to our dynamic and engaging exchange and learning more about your ideas, experiences and feedback. Before we start our discussion, the resource speakers would like share the definition of transboundary learning and innovation.

Best regards, Nicole Afable

Transboundary Learning and Innovation

Transboundary learning covers learning processes that occurs across boundaries, whether political, ethnic, geographical, religious, corporate or administrative. Transboundary innovation is innovation that redefines or transcends such boundaries and affiliations.

Learning by individuals is well understood. Learning by organizations started to be understood and applied thanks to the works of pioneers such as Chris Argyris, Peter Senge and David Garvin. Transboundary learning and innovation is the least understood. Real world problems often cut across boundaries, yet human solutions are often conceived and implemented within boundaries. Transboundary learning and innovation that seeks to evolve more workable solutions to human, social and planetary problems has been going on in the United Nations, in regional and international development organizations and in a growing variety of networks supported and spurred by the Internet. But more has to be done to move this field forward.

We recognize the importance of bringing together experts and practitioners in this field of transboundary learning and innovation, and capture via a publication the experiences and theory building that has been happening. We are bringing this discourse through a wider audience of KM practitioners through this KM4Dev Focused Conversation. We invite you to share your own experiences so together we can gain more insights towards a better understanding of this important process.
