The United Nations Peacekeeping Best Practices Unit is the knowledge management team of the UN. They maintain records of the lessons learned by employees around the globe working in the field. In 2005, the UN realized that it needed to better organize this information to make it better categorized and more accessible to field officers. The first project in this initiative was the reorganization and redesign of the information and documents held in the public-facing Best Practices web site.
