Knowledge Organization and Digital Sustainability

Preserve knowledge – digitally, structured, future-proof

In a world where data volumes grow exponentially, well-organized access to knowledge is essential. Companies that store their information only in people's heads or scattered files risk losing valuable knowledge – along with quality and efficiency. Sustainable knowledge organization means making knowledge findable, understandable, and usable over the long term.

What digital sustainability means for knowledge

• Long-term availability: Content must remain accessible and understandable even five or ten years from now.
• Structured storage: Knowledge needs a clear structure to be found and used.
• Connecting terms and context: Only then does real orientation emerge.
• Technical openness: Exchange formats and interfaces ensure future viability.
