This document discusses coordinating knowledge management across the UN to enhance collaboration. It provides a brief history of UN knowledge management efforts and outlines DOCO's KM priorities, such as deploying a common expert roster system and documenting lessons learned. However, challenges to inter-agency KM include a lack of common vision, weak collaboration, and diverse approaches. The document argues for moving towards an era of collective knowledge by focusing on knowledge capacity building with partners.
