Year: 2018
Type: article
Abstract: The digital society has altered global communications, relations, and organization of various public services.New challenges and opportunities presented by the digital society make it necessary to find ways of describing and discussing the present situation.This need created the background for establishing the Navigating Knowledge Landscapes (NKL) Network.The term "Knowledge Landscapes, " representing 3D knowledge distribution in both off-and online arenas, was coined at the Zagreb meeting of the Task Force on Communication of the COST Action 1001 Bio-Objects and Their Boundaries, Governing Matters at the Intersection of Society, Politics and Science in January 2014 (Figure 1).This led to the first publication using the term "Knowledge Landscapes" in the Croatian Medical Journal (CMJ) (1).Subsequently, the three authors of this text bravely decided that they would continue and expand our interdisciplinary collaboration on Knowledge Landscapes to explore how innovative knowledge is communicated and distributed in the digital society.The decision was made in Brussels on December 4, 2014, after the Final Conference of the Bio-objects COST Action.
