In Jordan, 6 United Nations (UN) employees, all of whom work for different UN agencies, regularly meet for a lively discussion on gender equality. Despite their different views and opinions and sometimes argumentative discussions, the UN gender equality CoP relies on each other to foster unique and valuable connections that enrichen their knowledge of gender equality. This study explores the CoP members’ interpretations of their roles and responsibilities in transferring the knowledge they acquire in the community back to their home organizations. This qualitative case study, using in‐depth group interviews, found that while CoP members are highly motivated to share knowledge within the community, they viewed their responsibilities to share knowledge outside of the community as inconsequential. The findings indicate that due to a lack of recognition and guidance by their organizations, the members of the CoP had detached themselves from their organization’s objective, and had, due to their zealous commitment to gender equality, attached themselves to their domain instead.
