To support field offices and programme sections in handling transactions in VISION Sudan CO has established a VISION Hub service center by bringing together a small group of staff who have expertise and skills through hands-on training and experience in the use of the VISION application.

The Immunization Section is entering a period of strategic transition, marked by the shift to a new Organizational Management Plan (OMP) and the evolution from Gavi 5.0 to Gavi 6.0. These changes bring new priorities, structures, and ways of working that require thoughtful adaptation and alignment across teams. In such contexts, the ability to retain critical knowledge, preserve institutional memory and improve collaboration becomes essential to ensure continuity, coherence, and sustained impact. Knowledge management plays a vital role in capturing and disseminating learning from past and ongoing initiatives, particularly as the current Strategic Plan (SP) and OMP cycles conclude. Documenting lessons learned, good practices, and implementation insights will help inform future planning and strengthen adaptive learning across the organization. This is especially important for ensuring that institutional knowledge remains accessible and actionable during times of change. The transition to Gavi 6.0 also introduces updated processes and guidance that require clear communication and capacity-building across Country Offices and partners. Strategic KM support is essential to ensure that these changes are well understood, internalized, and implemented effectively. In addition, knowledge management can function as a bridge to support collaboration and improve organizational learning and effectiveness in times of change and uncertainty.
This consultancy will contribute to these efforts by advancing targeted KM initiatives that promote knowledge continuity, internal collaboration, and organizational learning.

Starting with 2016, UNCT Moldova has been implementing the Diversity Internship Program for men, women and persons of diverse gender identities, belonging to different marginalized groups (further referring as Diversity Internship Program). The aim of the internship is, on the one hand, to empower representatives of marginalized groups to further seek employment on the open labor market, and on the other hand to improve diversity within the UN System. The need for increased diversity was confirmed including during the latest 2019 internal UN Moldova Diversity and Equality survey, that identified underrepresentation of people from several groups among the UN staff, including persons with disabilities, Roma and other ethnic or linguistic minorities.
The initiative foresees that persons belonging to marginalized groups join as interns for a 4 - 6 months part-time assignment in different programs and projects of UN agencies, being guided by a mentor (staff member of the UN Agency). The assigned tasks in administration, operations, procurement, logistical, communications or programming areas usually differ and grow in their complexity, reflecting also the interns’ specific learning, personal and professional development needs.
