Looking at what One Laptop Per Child is about highlights two aspects to knowledge in development:
- knowledge as development (OLPC's educational mission)
- knowledge for development, which they're happy to have included in the "content bundles" loaded onto the XO laptops (based on our conversations with them).
Both aspects of knowledge are essential - and so is collaboration to build this knowledge in an open way.
