Mainstreaming Capacity Development at ADB
Updated: 15 February 2007
In 2004, ADB adopted capacity development as a thematic priority. By doing so, ADB acknowledged that strengthened country capacity is not only a means to achieving public sector performance, but a goal in its own right.
A capacity development working group was established to develop an operational medium-term framework and action plan for enhancing the effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability of ADB-supported capacity development interventions. The draft report was widely discussed within and outside ADB and external comments were requested through this website.
The final report is now available: Integrating Capacity Development into Country Programs and Operations Medium-Term Framework and Action Plan
