Now through May 27, registration is open to enroll in the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health (BSPH) Summer Institute course, “Knowledge Management for Effective Global Health Programs.”
Gender and gender dynamics affect knowledge management (KM) in complex ways. Knowledge SUCCESS's Gender Analysis revealed many challenges arising from the interplay between gender and KM. This post shares highlights from the Gender Analysis; offers recommendations for overcoming key obstacles and creating a more gender-equitable KM environment for global health programs, particularly in family planning and reproductive health; and offers a guiding quiz for getting started.
Managing and maximizing knowledge and continuous learning in global health programs is a development imperative. Global health programs operate with scarce resources, high stakes, and urgent needs for coordination among partners and donors. Knowledge management (KM) provides solutions to these challenges. This course equips learners with the know-how to systematically apply KM for more effective global health programs.
