Learning and Knowledge Ecosystems

We build on the CEF's know-how in becoming and being a learning organization by sharing recommendations on how to embark on a journey of becoming a learning organization. We provide learning activities for public officials to acquire competencies to start practicing principles that foster a learning and knowledge sharing culture within their teams and institutions by putting people first. We encourage them to embrace a systematic approach to effective knowledge exchange and knowledge management. At the same time, we offer opportunities to gain knowledge and skills in learning methodologies to organize and deliver effective learning events. These capacities positively influence organizational performance and ensure that officials’ work meets the quality requirements expected by key stakeholders. In developing activities, we use design thinking and other collaborative approaches and highlight the importance of lifelong learning.

2025 Highlights

workshop

In 2025, the LKE thematic area remains central to the CEF learning and knowledge sharing program. Continuous professional development is promoted through formal and informal learning opportunities. Events are designed to foster synergies and connections for sustainable co-creation. New learning methods are explored. Communities and networks of regional experts are engaged, including those in structural reforms, public sector accounting, tax administrations, central banks, and finance ministries. We promote a systematic approach to institutional capacity development and knowledge management, emphasizing good governance, open communication, and cross-team collaboration. The National Bank of Moldova continues to serve as a role model in transformation to a learning organization, and we continue encouraging other institutions to embark on this journey. Team learning initiatives build a sense of belonging and commitment, promoting social learning and a shift from "my knowledge is power" to "knowledge shared is power." Public officials are supported in joint projects to better implement reforms and achieve Sustainable Development Goals.
