In the contemporary organizational context, the sharing and transfer of knowledge play a significant role and, therefore, it is important to overcome internal and external barriers for them to be processed. What can be facilitated by the implementation of The Governance of Data, Information and Knowledge (GovDIC), an emerging interdisciplinary approach that crosses the fields of Information Sciences, Business Sciences and Human Resources Sciences. The Governance do the problem is that, in addition to being a new construct and still little studied, conceptual divergences are fed by the amplitude the possible dimensions of analysis. In this context, the objective of this study arises in identifying the conceptualization of the construct Governance of Data, Information and Knowledge proposed in the scientific literature to support its better understanding and perspective of future investigations. A theoretical research was conducted through a systematic literature review, followed by an analysis of the most relevant publications on the subject. The discussion on the relevant GovDIC construct is considered in the context of contemporary organizations, however, it signals the importance of future empirical and theoretical studies,, to foster discussions, on the subject today. I. THEME AND SEARCH PROBLEM "Governance" is a well-known term in the business world. It has focused mainly on the role of management in representing and defending the interests of shareholders. The fundamental role of governance is to monitor and control the behavior of managers, who are hired to preside over the day-today functioning of organizations. Perhaps the best-known use is at the corporate level: "corporate governance", such as the set of processes, customs, policies, laws that affect the way the corporation/company is run, managed, or controlled. Corporate governance also includes the relationships between the stakeholders involved and the objectives for the company. The main stakeholders are shareholders, employees, suppliers, customers, banks and other creditors, regulators, and the community. In the world of ICT's, the term "ICT governance" is well defined and is known, Weill and Ross, (2004). It is a discipline of the subset of corporate governance focused on information and communication technologies, their performance and risk management. The growing interest in ICT governance is partly due to compliance (quality) initiatives as well as the recognition that ICT is a resource of increasing importance in products, services and in the implementation and optimization of processes. It consists of "organizational structures and processes that ensure that ICT's support the strategy of organizations and their objectives, Governance Institute, (2003). ICT governance is therefore an instrument of the alignment of ICT's with the business, according to Hirschheim and Sabherwal, (2001). Therefore, the proper use of information (and not only its production) is of vital importance and therefore adequately a candidate for governance. We believe (it is our premise) that organizations that have an implemented process of information governance are more effective in identifying sources, collecting, processing, and using information and increasingly creating value for other sources of information. Information governance involves defining the global and immediate or transactional environment, identifying new opportunities, rules and decision-making power for the evaluation, creation, collection, analysis, distribution, storage, use and control of information, which answers the question: "What is the information that managers need for support in decision making, how they make use of it and who is responsible for it?" Research into current practice reveals that in many organizations, if not all, a comprehensive information governance policy, Economist Intelligence Unit, (2008), especially for external and free information, and often the policies and processes they have, are not effective.
