This blog has been dormant for some time, but the subject keeps its importance. Whether it is called "capacity building" or "capacity development" is not the issue. Keeping focus on the need for capacity and doing something about it is essential.
At World Urban Forum in Naples a number of sessions focused on the issue and many more highlighted its importance. For example, the Asian Coalition for Human Rights which has been working at the slum level in Bangkok and other cities highlighted the need for capacity at city level to be able to interface in a creative way with slum communities and help take project innovations to scale.

We are having renewed discussions on lessons from experiences of capacity building. If you have any experiences to share, they would be very welcome.
