Knowledge generation in the telecommunications era and its impact on education and economic development in Latin American

The present study is a branch of previous research carried out in 2017, called "Management of knowledge networks in the shrimp fishing sector in Sinaloa, Mexico." It is a collaborative research project in some Latin American countries, consisting of a theoretical model of knowledge management based on a study in a particular sector; however, this does not prevent the likelihood of its being applied to other areas and strategic sectors in Latin American developing countries from taking place. The study deals with a documentary review of various sources and previous and subsequent studies; moreover, it presents a diagram or proposal of a model in 5 levels or phases that include the main elements that generate knowledge in the educational field and show their relationship with productive regional development. The study concludes that, currently, this type of model serves as an alternative strategy to deficiencies and lack of resources; thus fostering greater linkage between academic and productive areas among the involved actors, and investment for improvement.
