KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT PLATFORM
The Knowledge Management Platform will help ensure that the information generated through biodiversity information-sharing between the AMS and ACB is translated into policy and action. It aspires that the Knowledge Management Plan will provide guidance in terms of recognising the processes involved, addressing prevailing knowledge management gaps and challenges, and finding solutions to improve processes and synergies.
