knowledge enthusiasts and affirmed professionals squaring the circle, together

In today’s complex world, effective human rights policies are more crucial than ever. Yet, how can we ensure these policies are built on a solid foundation of knowledge and evidence, and implemented taking into account all the relevant local perspectives?

This pressing question is at the heart of the conversation hosted by the latest Swiss Knowledge Management Forum (SKMF) Round Table in Geneva and promoted by Diego Costa Fernandes, Founder of Planetary Collaboration.

Drawing from his wealth of experience, Diego will guide us through the labyrinth of modern policy-making, showing how knowledge management can be the compass we need to craft more effective, evidence-based policies.

With the help of two facilitators, the participants will engage in rich discussions and interactive “policy making” games, sharing their own experiences and challenges.
