Interested in supporting sector-wide #learning? Apply now! https://lnkd.in/e9rfs5cw
📥 Apply TODAY! The UK Humanitarian Innovation Hub (#UKHIH) is seeking proposals from service providers or consortia to deliver the Adaptive Learning for Humanitarian Impact: Harnessing Real-Time Tacit Knowledge. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e9rfs5cw This initiative will explore "Unplanned Spontaneous Learning," drawing on tacit knowledge through flexible, reactive learning spaces to enhance both organisational capacity strengthening and cross-sector learning. The successful provider will help humanitarian actors apply real-time learning methods in new and emerging crisis responses, with insights captured in practical resources to support sector-wide learning. Grounded in, and informed by, insights from a joint ALNAP and #UKHIH study, this project aims to support humanitarian actors to maximise unplanned spontaneous learning. In particular, the focus is on use of tacit knowledge pathways to support more agile and informed responses during new and emerging crises. Specifically, it aims to: ◾ Facilitate real-time learning exchanges to support immediate response efforts ◾ Encourage cross-sector learning by involving diverse actors actively working in humanitarian contexts ◾ Develop adaptable, strategic resources that can help strengthen learning practices across the sector ◾ Service provider(s) are expected to work iteratively over the two-month project period, delivering high-quality outputs that include ideation and workshop facilitation and drawing on key insights to producing learning briefs and resources. 🗓️Deadline: Friday 22 Nov, 23:59 (UK time) #withlearningcomeschange
