title = "A review of knowledge management in the public sector across Arab countries: Lessons learnt from developed and developing world",
abstract = "The purpose of this paper is to highlight the development of knowledge management (KM) in the public sector across the developed and developing countries and also to investigate the same in the context of Arab countries to see the extent of awareness and growth in these countries. A total of 70 studies including 53 from the developed and developing countries and 17 from the Arab countries were found suitable for our analysis. The result indicated that Arab countries are lagging far behind in comparison to the developed world and needs to learn a lot from the successful establishment of KM in the public sector of developed and developing world. The analysis found that most of the studies on KM at the public sector level are qualitative in nature. This paper also acknowledges its limitations, future research directions, and research contribution.",
