As articulated in the Paris Declaration
on Aid Effectiveness (2005), country capacity is at the core
of sustainable development. The concepts of capacity and
capacity development (CD) are so all-encompassing, however,
that practitioners have often found it difficult to make
operational sense of them. Practitioners should focus on the
specific capacities needed to reach well-defined goals,
while keeping in mind several basic principles: (a) capacity
development is a long-term process and requires a long-term
view, (b) it must be country led, (c) donors should
coordinate their CD support activities, (d) good diagnostics
should inform the program design, and (e) learning
activities must be comprehensive. This brief looks at how
three ongoing World Bank projects in the transport sector
worked to put these ideas into practice. Within very
different country contexts, all incorporate three or more of
these core principles. All are country led and based on good
diagnostics; all are being carried out in a five-year period
with ample time and budget for capacity development; all
focus on developing capacity simultaneously at the
individual, organizational, and institutional levels; and
all use local expertise, including private sector expertise,
wherever possible. |
