What is the relation between Information cosolidation and repackaging

[Nasirudheen.T]

Information consolidation is the process and repackaged information is the product, am I right?

[Siddhartha Shankar Ray]

Dear Janab Nasirudheen T,

"Consolidation" means to bring together into a single unified whole.

"Repackaging" on the other hand is making "tailor-made" for some definite target recipients. For example in a brochure of some ORS (Oral Rehydration Solution ) meant for Clinicians, the principle of intestinal ion transportation are explained but when it comes for community awareness for lay people, the brochure explains simply how supplementation of salt solution through veins enhances recovery preventing muscle cramps, sunken eyes etc.

There is an unique book " Information Consolidation& Repackaging: Framework, Methodology, Planning by Prof. S.Seetharama  published by Ess Ess Publications, New Delhi.

There is another excellent article on Repackaging of Information by K. Kannpiran published in World Health Forum, a journal published by WHO.

To Understand the repackaging issue more vividly, you may read the book Presenting Science to the Public by Barbara Gastel Published by ISI Press, USA.

All the above three documents were published during mid to late 90's.The first two materials are rather easier to get but the third one may be difficult.

Sincerely,

Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta
