Alianza Shire brings ten years of experience to the community of practice in energy access and humanitarian aid
Sharing the knowledge generated by the Alianza Shire members with other actors in the international community has always been one of the alliance’s goals. Indeed, all the Alianza Shire’s manuals and reports are published under the Creative Commons licence. However, until now there has been no single, publicly accessible repository of this documentation.
With the dual intention of practicing good knowledge management within Alianza Shire and sharing the experience of this multi-stakeholder partnership with other organisations and practitioners, we are launching this specific and open site with all the technical and scientific experience built up by the members of Alianza Shire during its first ten years of life.
The tool, built on the Notion platform, allows us to visualise in an agile and clear way what phases Alianza Shire has gone through during these years, what knowledge products have been generated, and also allows us to filter them according to different criteria.
In the “Technical Reports” section it is possible to find the project impact reports, which provide a detailed overview of the progress, results and impact achieved in the key areas of the project, giving an overall view of its impact.
In the “Scientific production” section, you will find scientific articles published by researchers on aspects relevant to the work of Alianza Shire (such as the facilitation of multi-stakeholder partnerships or the relationship between collaboration and the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals).
The “Educational Activities UPM” section includes all the final projects (bachelor’s or master’s degrees) of students from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, whose research has contributed to systematising the partnership’s knowledge and opening up new areas for innovation.
Finally, in the last section, it is possible to access the database of all the documentation in three different ways: by theme, by document or by technical file.
The result of this collective effort makes the technical and academic knowledge of the first ten years of Alianza Shire much more accessible.
