Produktbeschreibung

Knowledge is the source of competitive advantage to regions, countries and organizations. It has also become an important part of the development cooperation because it is the key element for development. After all, most of the problems that developing countries face are results from insufficient knowledge. The purpose of this study is to describe the process of international knowledge transfer through development projects by studying a Finnish funded Community Health Education Program in Egypt.To provide full understanding of the topic following sub-objectives are needed to be analyzed: what type of knowledge is transferred through development projects, how the knowledge is transferred and how knowledge recipients adopt and learn new knowledge and what is the influence of the culture in knowledge transfer process.However, as in every development project, it is worth remembering that every country is its own unit and some best practices that have worked well in Egypt may not workin the same way when transferred to other developing countries.
