Background
- The enabling environment: is the broad social system within which people and organizations function. It includes all the rules, laws, policies, power relations and social norms that govern civic engagement. It is the enabling environment that sets the overall scope for capacity development.
- The organizational level: refers to the internal structure, policies and procedures that determine an organization’s effectiveness. It is here that the benefits of the enabling environment are put into action and a collection of individuals come together.
- The individual level: are the skills, experience and knowledge that allow each person to perform. Some of these are acquired formally, through education and training, while others come informally, through doing and observing. Accesses to resources and experiences that can develop individual capacity are largely shaped by the organizational and environmental factors described above, which in turn are influenced by the degree of capacity development in each individual.
