Knowledge Sharing in Action Ultimate Outcome Intermediate Outcome Output Activities Coalition Building Knowledge Conversion Peer-to-Peer Tacit Knowledge Exchange Empathy / Inspiration Country Ownership, Cross-Country and Within-Country Interaction, and Pragmatic Recommendations
Lessons and Implications • Country Ownership • A partner country should think for itself and make its own decisions even if it must engage with the outside world to narrow the knowledge and finance gap. • Identify local demand and link the program to specific institution building needs. • Identify key “change agents” who are in position to apply the gained knowledge into actual practice. • Design the program to promote capacity development and sustain momentum for change—and leave the final decision to the partner country.
Lessons and Implications • Cross-Country and Within-Country Interactions • Facilitate tacit knowledge exchange and local institution building by promoting peer-to-peer interactions between knowledge partners from two countries. • Build effective reform partnership by promoting interactions among high-, mid-, and working-level agents and between public and private sectors within a country. • Pragmatic Recommendations • Draw from actual experience, as well as theory and comparative perspectives, and incorporate the local context.
