6. A collective capacity to acquire and create knowledge and put it to productive use for the common good is as critical to the efforts of the UN system as it is to individual countries. This means, for the UN system, concerted action to deepen understanding and to manage and share knowledge much more purposefully. On the conceptual level, for example, a compelling need exists to articulate fully the system’s understanding of the linkages between peace and security and development. In the development area itself, UN system organizations need to further together their understanding of how to advance a truly holistic approach to economic and social development: which fully reflects the mutually reinforcing relationship between pursuing the Millennium Development Goals and those incorporated in the wider UN development agenda; which ensures that social objectives are effectively integrated into economic decision-making; and which factors in the challenge of addressing existing inequalities within and among countries.

7. Individual efforts must coalesce into system-wide action to become centres of excellence within and across areas of competence, especially on multisectoral approaches.

8. The UN system must continue to intensify its efforts more effectively to manage and share knowledge and best practices, to better employ information technology and to produce reliable standardized data, all of which facilitate coherent support of decision-making and cogent system-wide strategies for public communication. As part of those efforts, the system needs to promote a system-wide learning culture, rooted in shared values and common objectives.
