Knowledge ecosystems is a conceptual framework and research field that examines the dynamic interactions, self-organization, and co-evolution of knowledge, agents (human and non-human), technologies, and environments. It investigates how knowledge is generated, disseminated, adapted, and evaluated based on its "fitness" or suitability to prevailing problems and changing conditions, emphasizing emergent properties and resilience rather than purely directive management. Its significance lies in providing a lens to understand the adaptability, sustainability, and effective functioning of complex knowledge systems in dynamic and information-rich landscapes.
