In March of 2006 in Ecuador, the Workshop on knowledge-sharing for rural community development was organized, which was part of a series of South-South exchanges that have taken place in various countries of Asia and Africa - this being the first for Latin America -.
This publication gathers together experiences shared during this event as well as other related experiences which show-case different facets and methods for knowledge sharing in the context of rural communities. In addition, it explores several methodological instruments and materials for exchange, employed in one Central American initiative in social economy. It also draws from five local experiences, accounting for different approaches in the use of ICTs as tools for systematizing, sharing and building knowledge.

ICTs for building knowledge, as an administrative tool | Resumen | |
Before implementing the use of digital media, AGRECOL had accumulated (over a span of more than five years) a wealth of experience in the promotion and organization of exchanges between peasant farmers, during which agriculturists would visit one another's community. As a result, the farmers gained access to information about different ecological agricultural practices with which they could then experiment in their local setting. In order to better document these valuable lessons, some participants used digital cameras and audio recorders. At that point, the need emerged for a more systematic means of documentation, which would facilitate the dissemination of findings. | |||

The agrarian information system in the Huaral Valley | Resumen | |
Small-scale farmers often face a competitive disadvantage within the agricultural market. One main reason for this is a lack of access to timely and specialized information that could help them make appropriate decisions to improve their market participation. In response, the Chancay-Huaral Valley's Irrigation Water Users' Council, with support from the Peruvian Center of Social Studies (CPSS), has implemented an online Agrarian Information System (AIS) that enables farmers to quickly and easily obtain useful information in order to determine: what to plant; at what prices to sell their products; financial institutions from which they might gain support; the number of hectares being cultivated in the area; what type of crops have been planted, when they were planted and when they will be harvested; as well as other important information which might make them more competitive. | |||

Satellite-linked telecenters unite migrants with their families | Resumen | |
These centers are also known in Latin America as infocenters, public communication booths, access centers, digital libraries and more. They are not based upon universal models; instead they have grown out of experiences based with local culture and community needs.Based upon this premise, the Social Pastoral Service of Cuenca, with the support of the "Intercommunication Project between Latin America and Europe", decided to launch the Satellite-linked Telecenter Pilot Project. They began in the Province of Azuay, in areas with the highest migration rates and little or insufficient telecommunication services. | |||

Knowledge exchange for the conservation of life-giving natural resources | Resumen | |
While the exchange of knowledge and information takes place amongst communities in both sectors, the experience shared by community members and promoters in each case is unique. The goal is to gather together widely dispersed information, whether written, or in the form of testimonies, project reports, photos, videos, etc. As project promoters, we analyze and organize the information. Almost all of this information concerns community experiences, since local promoters within the organizations, associations or community groups have been writing about the situations and problems that they face. In addition, we carry out interviews with people. | |||

Challenges for schooling in the Brazilian countryside: the experience of the MST | Resumen | |
Based upon a variety of sources, Brazil is one of the countries with the greatest social inequality on the planet. Large estates, known as "latifundios," form the basic fabric of this arrangement. In 1984, confronting this reality and calling for agrarian reform, the Landless Workers' Movement (MST) emerged. However, not only was the movement demanding access to land, it also called for recognition of other rights, such as rural education and culture. As an outcome of this, the MST has become a socio-cultural movement for civic education. |
