During a public health emergency, it is essential that public health professionals have access to accurate, up-to-date information they can use to inform their work. However, given the quantity of information being shared during such an emergency this can often be challenging. In these settings, Knowledge Management (KM) tools and techniques can strengthen collaboration and knowledge exchange and ensure the latest evidence is put into practice. The KM Road Map for Public Health Emergencies provides an overview of how to implement KM during a public health emergency, such as an infectious disease outbreak. It outlines a step-by-step process that implementing partners, public health professionals, and donors can adapt to their contexts.

In a new training module on the Knowledge Management Training Package, participants can access training materials, including a video version of the Road Map.

Training participants will learn: 

• How to apply the KM Road Map to a public health emergency response.

• How to design KM interventions that address choice and cognitive overload during a public health emergency, using case studies that can be applied to each step of the KM Road Map.

• How to use customizable templates to help guide implementation of the KM response in their own emergency context.
