- supporting the conscious process of structuring, relating and sharing knowledge within CARE
- drive the integration of tools and systems with attention to the four key components: Knowledge, People, Processes and Technology (KP2T)

Enabling the development of an inventory of knowledge domains and intellectual assets and defining a mechanism for partners to access the same seamlessly, including CARE Staff looking for information or institutional knowledge.
