Assessing capacity for community-based development: a pilot study in Tajikistan
McNeil, Mary | Kuehnast, Kathleen | O'Donnell, Anna
This paper presents the design and field testing of an instrument for the ongoing work of the World Bank Institute (WBI) in the area of capacity assessment. The approach piloted here, a Capacity Enhancement Needs Assessment (CENA), is a participatory assessment designed to evaluate existing capacity within key stakeholder groups, identify capacity gaps and weaknesses, and recommend possible remedies. To help measure the effectiveness of ensuing capacity building programs, a set of impact indicators is developed as part of the assessment. WBI has initiated CENAs in Nigeria, Tajikistan, Ghana and Burkina Faso in an attempt to develop viable assessment tools to better guide the Institute in meeting the training and capacity building needs of a client country, and in improving implementation of World Bank operations.
