A knowledge society generates, shares, and makes available to all members of the society knowledge that may be used to improve the human condition.[1] A knowledge society differs from an information society in that the former serves to transform information into resources that allow society to take effective action, while the latter only creates and disseminates the raw data.[2] The capacity to gather and analyze information has existed throughout human history. However, the idea of the present-day knowledge society is based on the vast increase in data creation and information dissemination that results from the innovation of information technologies.[3] The UNESCO World Report addresses the definition, content and future of knowledge societies.[4]
