The Knowledge Management (KM) Audit Orientation Workshop for LGRC Program Managers was held as part of the Strengthening Local Governance Resource Centers in the Philippines with the support of the European Union. To identify valid interventions to strengthen the LGRCs, baseline information on how KM is integrated in the organization is important. Composing this baseline information are results of the LGRC Assessment and the KM Audit. Operating on the premise that determining the correct problems will yield correct solutions, the KM Audit will be conducted to all the regions.
