IFAD and UN-Habitat worked together to improve knowledge management and to build the capacity of IFAD staff and partners working on IFAD-supported projects and programmes.
It was funded by a grant built on the achievements of the Land and Natural Resources Tenure Security Learning Initiative for East and Southern Africa - Phase 1, which was implemented by UN-Habitat between 2011 and 2013.
Its main objectives and activities were: (1) scale up knowledge management and research activities, including facilitating lesson-learning; (2) undertake capacity development initiatives for tool development, testing and implementation, including in-country support; (3) develop, test, implement and scale up innovative tools and approaches.
