This capacity development brief
summarizes the results of a multi-donor team review of four
examples of post-crisis capacity development interventions
in the Solomon Islands in 2005-08 whose performance was
frequently cited as successful by local stakeholders.
Although not based on post-project evaluations, the review
found a number of patterns and potential lessons: (1)
responding to immediate needs fosters national ownership;
(2) 'quick wins' can lay the basis for wider
system impact; (3) being clear on 'capacity for
what' is key to project success, (4) critical mass in
capacity means taking a team approach; (5) training must be
grounded in time-relevant and actively operational tasks;
(6) a coaching and partnering style is essential and,
certainly, not optional; and (7) leadership becomes
catalytic in capacity development when a broader coalition
is engaged, and in some cases supports a 'heroic
individual' as its leader. |
