The Knowledge Management Project is inscribed within the wider strategy of the MDG-F, which arose from the realization that the knowledge generated by the Joint Programmes across all eight thematic windows was not only wide-ranging and rich, but also inherently innovative. Within this context, the MDG-F Knowledge Management initiative entreated the Convenors of each of the eight Thematic Windows to draw up and implement a Knowledge Management Strategy specific to the respective Thematic Window of their mandate and expertise. The Knowledge Management Project for the MDG-F Culture and Development Joint Programmes, led by UNESCO, is part of this effort and will contribute to informing future culture and development programming and policy.
