KSD – Phase 2 Strategic Overview, Plans and Activities (2012 – 2013)
KSD Phase 1 • Key Objectives of Phase 1: • Team building: filling up vacant posts and creating a spirit of team work; • Setting up the foundations for a strong, focused and relevant programme where we identified niche areas where KSD could have a significant impact; • Identifying partners, communities of thought and practice.
Objectives of Phase 2 – Overall Principles • Solidarity and team work; • Ideas and innovation not budget and scarcity; • Building networks and communities of thought and practice for sustainability; • Strengthening intra-divisional, inter-divisional, inter-sectorial partnerships and activities; • Strengthening coalitions with Field Offices; • Building partnerships with the private sector and civil society;
Programme for the Biennium (2012-2013) • The core elements of the programme will remain the same but need to be strengthened with a rigorous and strategic cost-cutting and fund-raising approach: 1) Events: Need to ensure the organization of a few high-profile international events in each biennium: • 20th anniversary of the MOW programme (2012); • World digital preservation conference (2012); • World OER conference (2012); • Netexplo forum (2012); • WSIS Review Forum (2013). • These events must be adequately funded and resourced in order to have the necessary impact.
Programme for the Biennium (2012-2013) • 2) Key Programmatic Lines: • A) ICT Platforms: need to build content, promote awareness, build communities: • OER Platform; • GOAP; • FOSS/OTP. • B) ICT in Education: identify niche areas and partnerships to strengthen our work in this area: • ICT Competency Framework for Teachers; • E-learning; • M-learning.
Programme for the Biennium (2012-2013) • C) MOW and Digital Preservation: this programme will constitute one of our key areas and must be strengthened: • MOW 20th anniversary and analysis of the programme; • Digital preservation conference; • Strengthening niche activities in the space of libraries and archives, including WDL; • D) Expanding access to cyberspace through our programme on multilingualism and disabilities; • E) IFAP: step-up the programme and its activities with additional resources where possible(prepare for 2013 review); • F) WSIS follow-up and review: complete the matrix of WSIS action lines and prepare for 2013 review event.
Additional Elements • The current financial situation will oblige us to: • Reduce programme areas, develop a much more strategic approach, cut all unnecessary costs; • Develop synergies with field colleagues on programmatic activities (synergies on programme delivery and cost sharing); • Develop partnerships and find innovative ways to enhance our impact; • Generate significant extra-budgetary resources to complement our weak RP situation.
Extra-budgetary Resources • Leverage extra-budgetary resources to: • amplify the impact of regular programme activities; • strengthen emerging areas of our programme (i.e, mobile space and platforms for education and access to information and knowledge); • cross-fertilise resources with RP funds for enhancing impact; • JUSTIFY OUR EXISTENCE and that of our great Organization
