Abstract

The “Knowledge Platform” (KP) will stimulate the synthesis of knowledge and evidence, the production of information products, and their dissemination to target audiences. Part of the platform will be an online ‘knowledge portal’ which will act as a repository of information and data relevant to financial inclusion of rural women and youth; natural resource management and climate resilience; and productive agricultural technologies (e.g. water management technologies, conservation agriculture, drought-resilient crops). The Open Access “knowledge portal” will be based on the technology developed for the Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) Platform and deliver practical results, in different types and grades of information for use by key target audiences. Information will be stored using international standards (Dublin Core, FAO AGROVOC, ISO) to facilitate data sharing and interoperable functionalities (API and web-services) to interact with other institutional systems and mobile applications.
