Knowledge Management in the European Commission
President Juncker’s mission letters to the Members of the College "a modernisation of the Commission’s ways of working, with a strong emphasis on teamwork, overcoming silo mentalities and harnessing synergies between portfolios"
Commission Communication on Data, Information & Knowledge Management C(2016) 6626• Improving information retrieval and delivery• Working together and sharing information and knowledge• Maximising use of data for better policy-making• Creating a culture of knowledge sharing and learning
The JRC strategy 2030
Transforming JRC from a traditional research-making organisation into a manager of knowledge for EU policies • Creation of a ‘Knowledge Management layer’
in the organigram to flexibly mobilise scientific competences to work on policy problems;
• KM professionalization programme for the staff and new tools for collaboration, to help scientists dealing with over-abundance of knowledge against the emergence of a polarised political ‘post-fact’ culture;
• Delivering ‘state-of-the-art’ scientific knowledge put into context, "making sense" of it to effectively help policy makers to take informed decisions.
What we can offer to EREK
JRC has expert knowledge on resource efficiency. For instance, JRC develops: − technical criteria for eco-design requirements and EU Ecolabel criteria for products− best available techniques reference documents (BREFs) for industrial installations− best environmental practices for businesses/organisations in various economic sectors
These are:− targeted guidance of specific relevance for SMEs in several sectors (e.g. food
& drink manufacturing, metalworking or tourism) − developed under EMAS* but for any organisation to use− being turned into a web-based user-friendly platform to disseminate these best
practices and to work together with stakeholders at identifying further ones.
JRC can contribute its experience and the best environmental practice knowledge base to EREK and develop it further with EREK members * EMAS: EU Eco-Management and Audit Scheme
