Organizing, Managing, Communicating and Leveraging Information and Knowledge to Support and Deliver CRP ResultsA hands-on Workshop on Approaches, Tools, Systems and Services Addis Ababa, 17-21 October 2012
Background • Multi-partner CGIAR Research Programs provide opportunities • to work together • to co-create, share and communicate knowledge in new ways. • BUT … they pose challenges to ‘center’ oriented systems
Objectives • Agree most promising ways to achieve information, knowledge and communication outcomes for our research programs • Share skills and knowledge on information, knowledge and communication approaches, tools, solutions these programs can use. • Shape the emerging knowledge, communication, information strategies of our programs
Outcomes • Wider use and uptake of promising tools, processes and approaches • Skills development and expertise sharing on specific tools and products • Enhanced cooperation across centers and partners • Clearer and improved roles, responsibilities, coordination and KM processes • More effective CRP information and knowledge products and services (and more effective CRPs!)
Scope • Communicating for wider influence and impact – Reaching and engaging with and influencing wide audiences • Research for impact – Translating outputs into research, development and policy outcomes, getting knowledge into use • Knowledge sharing and learning – Enriching organization/program/project learning, interaction and exchange • Publishing – Capturing and disseminating research products and outputs • Internal communication – Linking and connecting teams
