Description of the Project:

Raising the standards of decentralised public services provision in Ukraine through the integration of effective KM processes into the local governance system, Skat prepared training and exposure visits thematically, organised all the meetings, engaged resource persons as well as managed all logistical matters.

The aim was to provide partners of DESPRO with the opportunity to learn about expertise on knowledge management in the public sector.

Participants were asked to focus on how public servants and employees implement a KM strategy and mobilise resources, and reflected on their own KM practices in Ukrainian institutions and organisations.
