Building Instrument

2. Capacity Building
process of developing and strengthening
the skills, instincts, abilities, processes
and resources that organizations and
communities need to survive, adapt, and
thrive in the fast-changing world.
(Ann Philbin, Capacity Building in Social Justice Organizations
Ford Foundation, 1996)

3. Capacity Building (contd.)
Activities which strengthen the knowledge,
abilities, skills and behaviour of individuals
and improve institutional structures and
processes such that the organization can
efficiently meet its mission and goals in a
sustainable way.

4. Levels of capacity Building
• Individual level- It also calls for the establishment of
conditions that will allow individuals to engage in the
“process of learning and adapting to change”
• Institutional level- It should not involve creating new
institutions, rather modernizing existing institutions
and supporting them in forming sound policies,
organizational structures, and effective methods of
management and revenue control.
• Societal level- support the establishment of a more
“interactive public administration that learns equally
from its actions and from feedback it receives from the
population at large.”
