SDC thematic networks
The institutional mandate of the SDC thematic networks is to
exchange knowledge and experience
in various thematic areas - DRR being one of them - and to upgrade the competence of its members. The networks aim at improving coordination and communication among constituents within the organizational structure of SDC and with its external stakeholders. SDC network members are SDC staff and its partners. The purpose is to enhance thematic knowledge for its integration into the departments and for its operationalisatio. The networks provide a framework in which knowledge is exchanged and skills are built and maintained, with the following functions.
1. Promote
learning
and pass on professional and methodical knowledge
2. Provide theme-related
operational advice
to the organizational units within the network
3.
Capitalize on experience
and formulate good practices.
