چکیده انگلیسی:
While there is growing recognition amongst humanitarians that knowledge sharing and exchange are essential
components of organisational efficiency and effectiveness, knowledge management processes in many human-
itarian organisations are still inadequate. The review of knowledge management and international relations
literature reveals limited research on the institutional memory of humanitarian organisations. This article aims to
start filling this research gap by examining the use of explicit and tacit knowledge transfer in the humanitarian
sector in the Asia-Pacific. It points to the embryonic stage of knowledge management and the reliance on tacit
knowledge management consistent with the early stage of sector professionalization in the region. It reviews and
analyses existing scholarly literature and manuals and draws on fieldwork interviews with key humanitarian
personnel that primarily focus on natural hazards. The findings suggest institutional memory in the humanitarian
sector remains ad hoc with limited long-term capture. There is a broad tendency in the region to rely on tacit
knowledge transfer – interpersonal relationships and informal decision-making – as the dominant knowledge
management practice. This reliance challenges knowledge management at the institutional level and indicates a
weakness in the institutional memory of humanitarian organisations in the region. Our research raises questions
about how to improve knowledge management practices within humanitarian organisations in the Asia-Pacific
with significant implications for the sector more generally. A recalibration of tacit and explicit knowledge
management would build institutional memory in humanitarian organisations. This requires a dual-track
approach with codified documentation of experiences and greater emphasis on an institutional culture of
knowledge sharing.
