NIPAM & OPM TO CRAFT A PUBLIC SECTOR KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT POLICY
NIPAM & OPM TO CRAFT A PUBLIC SECTOR KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT POLICY
The Namibia Institute of Public Administration and Management (NIPAM) and the
Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) recently held an inception meeting to
discuss the Public Sector Knowledge Management Policy development. The need for
crafting such a policy stems from the increased loss of knowledge currently
being experienced in the Public Sector as well as insufficient knowledge
creation and application. To address these problems, the OPM approached NIPAM
to embark on the development of the policy. NIPAM will soon conduct stakeholder
consultations in different parts of the country to develop the procedure, the
purpose of which is to improve service delivery and drive performance and
innovation in the Public Sector. The consultancy entails the development of a
Knowledge Management Policy for the Public Sector and an Implementation
Framework. The work will be completed by February 2023.
