To increase the ability to mobilise and deploy knowledge for the successful social and economic transformation of the continent, KMAfrica has begun to prepare the ground for mobilising three networks: governance, knowledge systems, and service delivery. These networks are aimed at creating an awareness of the extent to which knowledge is being used to inform development, and investigating the interface between knowledge management and sustainable development.

KMAfrica envisages that these networks will provide the means to achieve its goals of promoting multidisciplinary knowledge exchange and multisectoral linkages with African knowledge; linking conventional and indigenous networks; enhancing the continent's capacity to access, share, and utilise knowledge; and strengthening the relationship among government, business, and civil society for improved governance and service delivery.
