Promoting Knowledge and Good Practice: LenCD
The Learning Network on Capacity Development (LenCD) is an informal network of
analysts and practitioners aimed at creating a global community of practice around
capacity development. Its objectives are to facilitate the sharing of lessons and
distill quality criteria for good practice; promote research, share experiences,
monitor outcomes and carry out other empirical work; foster country-level, regional
and international dialogue and collaboration; promote the mainstreaming of
capacity development issues into agency operations; and act as a key partner
to advance the OECD/DAC's capacity development agenda.
The network emerged from several streams of research and conferences over
recent years and was established in June 2004. LenCD was instrumental in
organizing a roundtable on capacity development as part of the Paris High Level
Forum on Aid Effectiveness and in substantively guiding the development of a
widely agreed reference paper "The Challenge of Capacity Development: Working
Towards Good Practice" adopted by the DAC in 2006. LenCD organizes annual global
events like the Nairobi Forum in October 2006 "Addressing the Paris Declaration:
Collective Responsibility for Capacity Development."
