Capacity for Development
New Solutions to Old Problems

If capacity development initiatives are to have a pivotal role in helping developing countries meet the challenges of the 21st century, it is necessary to take a closer look at the underlying assumptions about the nature of development as a process of societal transformation, of capacity and capacity development, of knowledge and of aid-donor-recipient relationship. This book contains a range of views from practitioners, academics and policy-makers about what has gone right with technical cooperation, what has gone wrong, and how to do it better.
