| Project Detail |
As a globally active knowledge-based organisation, SDC is critically dependent on effective and efficient knowledge management. SDC’s thematic networks sit at the heart of this endeavour, rendering an essential service across the organisation and its partners by connecting network members, collecting and processing information, and retaining and distributing knowledge. State-of-the art backstopping services are essential to this activity, as is close cooperation between SDC’s thematic networks. The thematic networks and the knowledge management structures that they represent bring different parts of SDC and members of their implementing partners together. In this, they fulfil an essential service in ensuring that SDC remains a learning organisation that can shephard Swiss-funded international development such that it applies state-of-the-art approaches to maximise good outcomes and to uphold Swiss reputation for excellency in the international community (Swiss interest and Swiss value added).

Objectives SDC’s Cluster Green thematic networks Agriculture and Foodsystems A+FS, Climate, DRR and Environment CDE and RésEAU will substantially contribute to fulfilling SDC’s aspiration to be and remain a learning organisation operating through informed decision-making and innovative solutions that address contemporary and future challenges of international cooperation as set out in Switzerland’s International Cooperation Strategy 2025-28. |
