The term Commipedia refers to a proposal for a knowledge-management system within the framework of international organizations. Commipedia aims to be an on-line encyclopaedia of core knowledge and public affairs information , following in part the example of Diplopedia, a tool developed by the U.S. State Department over the recent years. Commipedia is meant to capitalize further on the original Diplopedia, by connecting it to dedicated instruments for collaborative preparation and management / retrieval of documents.
