Abstract
The contributors to this volume have identified organizational, technological, and human factors that enable and hinder information sharing in military, humanitarian, and counterterrorism operations. This concluding chapter is a synopsis of the recurring enablers and barriers to information sharing raised by the authors. Reciprocity, trust, interoperability, language proficiency, and common pre-deployment training come up in almost every contribution. These enablers and barriers are also widely attested in the literature.
