The Commonwealth Secretariat in London convenes member countries; executes mandates set by the Commonwealth Heads of Government (CHOGM) and implements strategic plans agreed by its Board of Governors representing its member countries.
To drive knowledge management as an organisational asset and promote sound knowledge management practices, the Commonwealth Secretariat (‘the Secretariat’) developed and comprehensive Knowledge Management Strategy. The Strategy embodies the Secretariat’s commitment to adaptive planning, monitoring and delivery of results as outlined in the strategic plan. It sets out that all knowledge management activities in the Secretariat must serve these strategic areas of work through evidence collection; data analysis; knowledge capture, generation, and exchange; improved organisational effectiveness and efficiency; and fostering a culture of learning and exchange.
The purpose of this assignment is to conduct a Commonwealth Secretariat wide knowledge management audit that establishes a baseline for assessment of progress in the implementation of the Strategy. This audit has been identified as one of the initial key steps in actioning the Strategy.
