Capacity Development

Capacity development is a process through which groups, institutions and individuals attempt to increase their ability to understand, communicate and deal with development needs within a community in a broad context and in a sustainable manner. It is also a process of personal, organizational and societal change that reflects local issues, visions and commitment.

DPRA Canada's international projects have always been driven by the goal of developing institutional capacity. Our capacity development activities include training government officials, local firms, community leaders and professionals in:

  • Identifying areas for capacity building
  • Strategic planning
  • Facilitation techniques
  • Fundamentals of environmental management
  • Public involvement & participation
  • Risk assessment & management
  • Environmental impact assessment
  • Managing and implementing change
  • Enhancing participatory processes and approaches
  • Increasing collaboration between government, businesses and the public
  • Creating effective & efficient local governance
