01.04.2015 "Knowledge Management" training
“Knowledge is power”!
The justice of this famous quote was proved
 to the members of the international
 training “Knowledge management”
that took place in Moscow
on March 1-2, 2015

For the first time within the system of the Russian Red Cross “Knowledge Management” training was developed and conducted by specialists of the Technical Support Group on HIV and TB questions of the Russian Red Cross Resource Center in the framework of the program “Health Regional Initiative in Eurasia region”.

The importance of the subject is dictated by life itself. For noncommercial sector which is particularly sensitive to environmental changes and sometimes even forced to survive in the circumstances of the global financial system instability the problem of searching the ways to sustainable development becomes of the highest relevance. Advanced management technology - knowledge management - can help to solve this problem.

Today knowledge as an intellectual capital is the key resource for majority of organizations which form their successfulness and prosperity. The concept of knowledge management can significantly raise effectiveness of activities. It is knowledge that becomes an important asset as for project realization so for sustainable development of Red Cross/Red Crescent organization in general.

Over the years the International Movement of Red Cross has acquired huge and unique experience in resource mobilization and humanitarian programs realization. Today in RC/RC regional branches some elements of knowledge management process already work in a varying degree. As a rule they are intended to cooperation, use and dissemination of successful experience.

However in the majority of National Societies intellectual capital is not formalized, analyzed and stored and access to it is often limited. The culture of knowledge sharing is formed insufficiently as well. All these factors produce a negative impact on sustainability of activities. Thus learning and implementing knowledge management processes at all levels for Red Cross/Red Crescent organization is the most important strategic necessity today. 16-hours training “Knowledge Management” was dedicated to solving these issues exactly. 

R.T.Lukutsova, Head of Russian Red Cross and D.Mukhamadiev, Head of IFRC Moscow Representation arrived to Izmailovo hotel conference hall to greet and encourage participants of the training  and to emphasize the importance of the subject studied.  

The learning program included fundamental “knowledge about knowledge”, process of conversion, extraction, storage and use of knowledge, defining key organizational competences and their estimation, information about choice of change strategies and documentation processes, analysis of work with knowledge, description of technology, methods and forms of work with explicit and implicit knowledge and etc. 

For theoretical sessions on each topic of the training trainers prepared electronic presentations that visualized and made the theoretical material more structured. During the training besides the theoretical information part of attention was given to development of practical skills of defining certain steps to create an effective system of knowledge management in organizations of RC/RC and to form participants’ motivation to implement the knowledge they got in their work.

Despite the complexity of the subject studied, heavy timetable and wealth of new information participants were fully satisfied with the training. Summing up the majority of participants declared that the information they were provided with is relevant, helpful and corresponds to their professional needs.

The main conclusion the participants drew was: possessing a huge amount of information Red Cross/Red Crescent organizations must learn how to use if effectively as well as knowledge and experience of other organizations. It is the only way now to save and multiply achievements of the International Movement of Red Cross in solving critical social problems of society.
