The KS Toolkit Contest is live! Help us test and improve the toolkit by submitting methods, sharing resources, or reviewing existing content.
The KM4Dev Knowledge Sharing Toolkit is a community-owned, evolving resource for knowledge sharing methods and tools. Your contributions—whether big or small—help keep it practical, relevant, and inclusive.
There are many ways to get involved:
Each method or tool is hosted in an editable Google Doc. You can:
Suggest edits or clarifications directly in the doc (no need to request access)
Add real-life tips, templates, or references
📬 After making changes, send a quick email to kstoolkit@googlegroups.com so the Editorial Board can review and publish your input.
Used one of the methods in practice? Share how it went—others will learn from your experience.
💡 Use the Reflection Partner GPT to guide your story:
Describe your context
Explain how you applied the method
Capture what worked, what didn’t, and what you’d recommend to others
📬 When you’re done, email your output to kstoolkit@googlegroups.com.
Know of a method not yet included in the Toolkit?
Use the Article Writer GPT to help you draft your article in the standard format — even in your native language.
📬 Send the draft to kstoolkit@googlegroups.com for review and publishing.
Have a helpful KM guide, toolkit, course, or research paper to share?
Email the link or file (max 8MB) to kstoolkit@googlegroups.com
Optionally use the Resource Card Builder GPT to summarize it
This is an informal space for contributors, explorers, and peer supporters. No formal commitment—just a soft pledge to stay engaged and share when you can.
