Dear
Gada
I
arrived safely in Kampala today. Please`take note that I wa
embarassed by Immigration Officials at the air port when I was
leaving this mornning. While one of them cleared me to go I was
stpped from boarding the plane by another until I pleaded and gave in
your number. Still he did not call you at that time.
That
aside thank you very much for the warm reception and excellent
planning. I will, however, not hesitate to inform you that some
infoormation was not given to us in advance likre for example, that
Crdit cards do not work in Sudan. Secondly, I was not happy that
some of us paid for registration and others exempted!!!! Check this
out please.
I
look forward to continued cooperation.

confidence and spirit. Keep up the great work.

Dear
Gada (and everyone) firstly can I say what a tremendous honour and
pleasure it was to spend time with so many over you during KMCA 2012.
As
I sat at Khartoum Airport in the early hours of this morning I pulled
together a few thoughts on the event and my observations of the
environment and in the spirit of collaboration I'd like to share them
with you all.
Here
is the link: http://stories-and-organizations.sparknow.net/
Please
feel free to add your own thoughts and Gada I will be sending you a
selection of photos in due course.
Once
again many thanks for accepting me into your community and for being
so supportive when I found myself plunged in at the deep end (which
happened frequently this mission).
With
best personal regards,

Dear
Gada,
Thank
you so very much for the wonderful time and a great workshop at
Khartoum . This is a city that I will never forget and it is a place
that I will love to revisit. I am very impressed with your leadership
in getting a very difficult task well done. CONGRATULATIONS.
I
had a small thank you gift for you but under the pressure of last
minute travel arrangement I forgot to give it to you.
I
will keep it for you until I see you either in Africa or in the US.
Again
many thanks and please stay in touch.
Best,
Mohamed

Dear
Gada
Thank
you for having me in Khartoum. I thought it ideal that I give you
sometime to breath after the conference. I will come back to you
next week with some ideas. Again thank you so much for all that you
did to make the conference so exciting. Blessings, Jasson

Dear
Gada,
sorry
we didnt get to meeat on Saturday night, I am afraid I was asleep bt
the time you got back. Thankfully my chest infection is now under
control, and I want to thank you (and your mother) for you patience
with me.
Normally
I am fully engaged with the conference and I felt bad that I wasnt
fit for all events. I must congratulate you on the efforts you put
into the success of the workshop. I am sure you learnt a lot, not
least you have to get everyone who wants to share the credit locked
in to specific tasks at the outset.We all thought it was a miracle
you kept
going
dealing with matters large and small.
On
other matters I was impressed by the contribution of the Sudanese
students, their work was first rate and they were very perceptive in
their contributions to the discussions. I have carried that message
back to my university to give some background if we get applicants
for postgrad studies. I had a very useful discussion at Future
university and you may
see
me more often as a visiting prof.
Finally
any word on Douglas?
very
best wishes

Dr.
Kadoda,
I
wanted to write to you and express my sincere appreciation for being
able to attend and participate in the conference. It was the first
time I have participated in a conference, so it was new and exciting
experience on multiple levels.
It
was a very enlightening conference in the content. The various
presenters opened my eyes to various ways of looking at managing
information for various consumers and providers. Though I do not get
involved with much inter-organization knowledge management practices,
the same principles apply to the management of information between a
user and computer information system, a field I am pursuing. It has
definitely broadened my thinking on this level.
My
time with the students and faculty of the different institutions has
also been far more enjoyable that I had anticipated. I feel that I
have developed friendships that will continue long after the
conference has ended. While I did not have a negative view of Sudan
prior to the conference, thanks to Dr. Manzoul and Dr. Ali, my view
of your country, particularly its people, has greatly improved. I
found the people to be a great asset to your country in their
kindness, intelligence and desire to improve their country and the
world in general.
It
is my hope that should you visit us in Mississippi that we can show
you the hospitality that you have shown us while we were there. You,
your colleagues and students will forever have a special place in my
heart.
Thank
you so much.

Hello
from Ghana,
Indeed
it did not take me much time to realize you were such a great woman
who can turn the whole African continent round when given the
opportunity.In fact you have really demonstrated to the whole world
that Africans are capable of handling their own affairs, I must admit
without second thought your such a kind, powerful and wonderful
person I need as a mentor. Your people are so hospitable that I did
enjoyed every bit of my stay in Khartoum, I really wish to visit
Sudan again or still make it my second home.
Many
thanks to you Dr. for given us the opportunity and making Africa
proud. I can't just wait to see you in Pretoria again.
Ghana
salutes you! and we love you so much.

Hi
Gada,
Congratulations
on successful workshop. I must say that under your leadership the
team has done a great job throughout the workshop. It is a lot of
work to organize and prepare for the workshop.
On
behalf of Jackson State University, I would like to express my
sincere appreciation for hosting our students during the workshop.
Please extend my thanks to all those who provided support or help to
our students during their stay in Sudan.
I
am hoping for future collaboration between our institutions.

Dear
Dr Gada
I
would like to think that you have now recovered from 'catch up model'
after the amazing conference. I appreciated for leadership before
and during the conference. Thank you for having me.
I
think it is now an ample time to reiterate some of our discussions.
One of our emails before the conference, you mentioned about the idea
of having a joint project for women. Prof Sondra and I talked about
the possibilities but we needed you in our meeting in order to
understand the context. Unfortunately, it wasn't possible to get
your attention during the conference. I believe we can exchange
ideas over the emails and probably can find the niche of our
cooperation.
Also,
I mentioned to Rofaida about the communication (ICT and Radio) to
communicate knowledge and empower community and local authorities to
participate in development. I have developed an idea, which I think
it is what most of African countries currently need. It first targets
Tanzania but it can be framed to fit different contexts in Africa. I
hope Sudan can fit in.
To
bring the concept to your attention, I am attaching a summary
Concept Note which briefly outlines how the project will enhance
upward-downward capacity to promote national development programs.
What is particularly attractive about this initiative is its
potential to create a significant resource for all development
initiatives oriented towards the marginalized, disenfranchised and
impoverished that constitute the majority of the population of Africa
– especially in the rural areas. Please take a look at it and see
if/how possible to customize it for Sudan.
I
look forward to hearing from you.

Hi
Everyone,
I
arrived safely in New York last night and loving my dream. To dream
of Africa is to dream a mighty dream. My plane from Cairo came
straight through the Mediterranian that great lake that accepts fresh
water and fish from the mighty Nile (what a love affair!). It crossed
Spain and Portugal then climed higher, as if to test its stamina and
strength, and then did a left turn straight for New York reminding me
of my youth when I ran the forlong (220 yds) on my school ground(left
turn to the tape).
By
the time it entered the Atlantic I had embraced my favourute tune
'Leave the Mountain' and began to dance in my seat. I remembered we
danced on the Nile...the Sudanese, the lady from Rwanda, Mazima from
Zim / Swaziland, the student from Ghana and we from the Caribbean. I
can't recall if the Americans danced...they held on to their cameras.
Half
way over the Atlantic I mummured "to hell was Europe....to hell
was the triangular trade". I was glad I was not giving them an
airport tax (money). In 2010 I did America to Ghana; and now America
to Sudan (land of the Blacks) via Cairo... again, 'to hell was the
triangular route'.
Dancing
the dream,,,,see everyone in Pretoria in November.

Hi,
Gada
We
can't thank you enough for making it possible for us to go to the
Sudan.
We're
not yet "deep into our work." Rather we're in what a
friend of ours calls "great wracking sobs of re-entry
depression" because we had such a wonderful time in Sudan.
The
workshop was exceptional! You deserve extraordinary congratulations
for putting it together under the most trying conditions. And for
putting up with my perpetual barrage of "visa nervosa."
Our
trip to Nubia was one of the best ever. My talks with Tim Kendall on
Nubian/Ancient Egyptian relations at Jebel Barkal alone would have
justified the whole expedition! And meeting Charles Bonnet at Kerma
was a real treat.
We
just went to a concert by a Nubian woman at the Kennedy Center:
Alsarah and the Nubatones. She was born in Sudan but her parents
exiled to Yemen and then the US. Rebecca plays Nubian music
(Shaggy!) every day.
I
enjoyed talking with your mother. Please thank her for giving you
such remarkable assistance with the conference--to say nothing of
bringing you into the world!
I
hope that we can dedicate a skype call with you and John (Tharakan)
to debrief on the workshop and the Sudan experience. I've already
started lobbying Howard's most prominent Afrocentrist on the urgent
need for him to go to Nubia to study the real relations between the
Nubians and the ancient Egyptians.
Pretoria,
then! I'm trying to convince Rebecca that she should come after the
conference to spend our winter break in southern Africa--Lesoto,
Swaziland, Mozambique, perhaps even South Africa!
Many
thanks again!
Chuck
In fact I must admit without second taught all the work presented were amazing and it has really challenged me to push further in my education to become like you.
On behalf of myself and all students who made it to the conference, I will like to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to all of you for given us the opportunity to tap knowledge from you it has really added to our knowledge base.
I look foward and hope hope to make it to Pretoria this year. Many thanks to you all.

Yashika Lopez's Reflections on KMCA2012
Knowledge Management Capacity in Africa –
Reflections
Yashika Lopez - Proposer and Facilitator of Discussion Session at KMCA2012 on "How African Peoples have Influenced, Directed and Contributed to the World Transportation Modes"
These are some of my reflections of my experience visiting Khartoum,
Sudan for the second time and participating in the Knowledge Management
Capacity in Africa Workshop.
Although I was a participant of the conference and visiting Khartoum for
my vacation, my main purpose being there was to provide spiritual, mental and
emotional support for my friend Gada. I understood a part of her
quest, myself sharing in her vision to convert African Peoples to become
self-respecting; I found her accomplishment of the task, to have the workshop,
achieved. The goal was accomplished and out of a scale of 1 to 10
where 10 is the highest, I give a rating of 8.5 successful.
From my perspective, I found it a great accomplishment in touching the
vision. So great and grand that I believe it has evoked a sense of
change within me and I may venture to say others. To evoke a
competitive spirit, for the bar has been raised and it has provided me with
incentive to at least match the bar set and surpass it.
1. There are many lessons that I learned from the Workshop that I would
like to apply in planning and organizing the Nakumbuka Celebration for 2013.
- To
adopt strategy employed in editing and printing the proceedings for the
workshop by issuing a Call for Paper early and to send out a template for
submittants to complete.
- Understanding
of what an ‘academic workshop’ is; that the schools’ participants would be
more formal by presenting posters or projects. I particularly
liked the three-tiered layout of the poster session, indigenous, paper and
electronic posters. It presented a feel of past, present and
future. I would like to incorporate a similar layout within the
Nakumbuka Celebration.
- To
invite more international participants to broaden the definition of an
International African Celebration. I was particularly impressed
with the number of participants from various countries, African living on
the African Continent, within African Diaspora countries and other
countries. I found this presence provided the opportunity for
African peoples to continue to speak with each other, learn about each
other, share and teach each other.
- To
ensure that medical services and facilities are available for participants
and delegates.
- Hire
Out the People Concept – To ensure that there is a complete itinerary for
all international delegates during their time of visit. To
utilize their presence, expertise, potential, and possibility to connect
and collaborate with others within their respective industry and areas of
interest and expertise.
2. These are some of the personal lessons learned.
- I
was strangely surprised of the instant and magnetic connection I was
making with the Continental African student participants. One
student wrote to me saying that she liked my way of dealing with them…and
she felt inspired by me. It brought back and reminded me of my
leadership abilities and that I need to accept that role and responsibility
that I am graced with and to lead. It is now leading me into
learning about mentoring and coaching.
- Following
up this, I feel personally challenged with respect to ensuring that I
meet that goal within myself. That the tasks generated from the
Workshop and visit are committed to and worked on. It is
leading me to improve on my Strategic and Realistic Thinking. I
understand more aspects of the various management skills that we are all
learning, practicing and mastering.
- I
also found myself thinking and speaking more philosophical while I was in
Sudan. I found that change surprising. I was unaware that
my life experiences led me into that phase of self-explanation and
exploration.
- I
also felt grateful to connect with another kindred spirit, a
traveler. I feel comforted that I understand who my flock is.
3. These are some of the lessons learned for my friend, Gada.
- For
the KMCA Organizing Committee, I found the Management Skills employed
during the process good. For the number of dedicated workers committed
to making the Workshop a success, the opportunity to appropriately
delegate must have felt frustrating. However, the bright side
of this challenge is the perception has been shifted and for the next
workshop there shall be more persons to work. Where the
opportunity to set up executive and sub committees to manage tasks such as
fundraising, administration, international relations, publicity,
promotion, website, to name a few.
- I
was particularly impressed with Gada’s networking skills and abilities. That
was amazing to watch and witness. I too shall aim to learn and
practice networking.
- Overall
Gada, my dear friend, I believe the entire experience ignited another
self-growth shift within you. I would be delighted to hear your
personal reflections in months to come. In the meantime, I say
be still, breathe in and breathe out. Smile!

from Workshop Community Members
Elfatih
Wadidi (Sudapet, Sponsor and Paper Presenter)
Dear selective guests,
Today, I’m privileged and honored to
address this closing event. But first of all I would like to take the advantage
of this opportunity to express on behave of Sudapet top management our deep
thanks to the steering committee for organizing this important workshop and
given us an opportunity in the participation. This workshop provides us with a
very uses full platform to exchange information, ideas, experiences and lessons
learned in the knowledge management. Involving Sudapet in such a huge KM event
will definitely enrich our experience very much. We witnessed top class efforts
in transforming the obstacles into clean success. By assembling all those
experts and participants together, we paced the first step in a million miles
KM trip towards achieving our goals in spreading and disseminating the KM
concepts and looking forward towards adopting the KM in all the Sudanese
governmental and private organizations and institutions. Without the
collaboration and participations from our guests from outside Sudan, this event
could never be as successful as further actions in Sudan and collaboratively
with other countries’ initiatives in this era. Also you proved the great love
you have in your hearts for our beloved country “Sudan”. In the old days
Mahatma Gandhi said “We need to be the change we wish
to see in the world”, so we appreciate your efforts, your values in
change and your inputs in KM booming so may Allah bless you all and help to
keep in showing such recognized initiatives. We hope to see the KM activities
within different disciplines besides being a part of national strategic plan.

"بالنسبة لي كانت KMCA فرصة
طيبة وكبيرة، كانت بحق بيئة مناسبة خلقت شبكة فعالة مكنت من خلق وبث وتفعيل
إدارة المعرفة ونشر ثقافتها. في أحايين كثيرة الوسائط الجيدة هي الدافع الحقيقي
المحفز للإبداع والإبتكار أعتقد بشكل كبير أنه لولاJournal of Bell Systems لما
كانت الـ Information Theory لـ Shannon في عام
1948. وكذا KMCA لكثير من الأوراق المقدمة فيها (على المستوى الشخصي لولا هذه
الورشة لما أقدمت على كتابة الورقة التي قدمتها.
الورشة أثبتت أن لدينا طيف واسع من
الإمكانات الواعدة. لكننا مطالبون بشدة لخلق بيئة وجسم ثابت (لتكن الجمعية
السودانية لإدارة المعرفة) من أجل إستدامة ونشر ثقافة إدارة المعرفة ، ولتجسير
الهوة بين المجهود العلمي وتطبيقاته وبالأخص فيما يتعلق بالتخطيط الإستراتيجي ودعم
إتخاذ القرار لإدارة الموارد العامة. ليس من الحكمة بمكان إهدار هذا المجهود الضخم
من دون جدوي. شكرا

Eltayeb (Student Committee - Chair of
Poster Session)
First of
all, I would like to welcome you all to the closure session of our successful
workshop that we all feel proud to be part of.
I am
standing here to talk about the experience that I gained from the workshop, and
to talk on behalf of the students those who got involved in organizing this
workshop.
I will start
with my own experience. I learned the team work, and how to plan and think as a
part of a group. I visited places that I did not think that I will go to
before, and I developed a large network of people from different ages and
specializations that I did not develop in years. I even learned how to write
proficiently which helped me a lot in my career.
If I am in a
position to talk on behalf of the students, I think that each one of them has
experiences gained depending on the role and what he or she did for the
workshop, but I think we all agree on that this workshop raised our self
confidence. How is that? Here is it: The planning for the workshop depends
mainly on voluntary work, students were assigned the tasks that they
volunteered to do. I t was amazing that if one of us has been assigned a task,
he or she take the complete responsibility of it. We felt that Dr. Gada and the
team of KMCA says to each one of us that we believe in you, we do trust you and
we are absolute that you can and you will accomplish it successfully. No one
said to us that you are still young, or you may not do that alone or in the
right way. Moreover, we absolutely felt that our effort is really appreciated,
no matter it was small or big.
I did not
experience a voluntary work that is hard and tough, but still a lot of people
were enthusiastic to be part of it. The community of KMCA was growing and
getting larger and larger every single day.
I am really
glad to be part of such fabulous workshop and I would like to thank all people
who participated in organizing KMCA, really you are stars. And I want to say to
Dr. Gada that you are a person who can change the work, really you are and you
proved that.

فكرتك نكون تحصلنا علي مجموعة من الأفكار (تخيل افكار شخصين ) ما بالكم لو كان
هناك مجموعة من الخبراء و المتخصيين في مجال محدد من هنا بدأ
التفكير بالمشاركة في ورشة إدارة المعرفة وكان المحفز الأكبر زيارة
الشباب و المحفز الأكبر جدا هو د.غادة فاروق كدودة (وكانت
تزور جامعة كسلا بصورة مستمرة وأفتكر هي ضمن أعضاء هيئة التدريس الموجودة بجامعة
كسلا كلية الحاسوب ) نشكرها جزيل الشكر لإتاحة الفرصة بالمشاركة وافتكر ان

تعبير عن ذلك )
