Abstract:

The case examines Solution Exchange (SE), the knowledge management (KM) initiative of United Nations Development Program (UNDP). UNDP's SE initiative was first launched in India in 2005. SE in India comprised of 12 Communities of Practice (CoP) - education, AIDS, climate change, decentralization, disaster management, food & nutrition security, gender, maternal & child health, and Information & Communication Technologies (ICT) for development, microfinance, water, work & employment. Through these CoPs, members could interact through a virtual forum, discuss issues and share problems. SE was successful in encouraging knowledge sharing by bringing together frontline workers, the experts and also the policy makers.
