Key capacity development concepts
These capacity development strategies will be focused on bringing about genuine transformation in the system across three capacity levels. For example, we know that providing a training or exposure mission abroad on asset recovery for staff of an anti-corruption agency (individual level capacity) will not reap rewards if existing policy frameworks and regulations (enabling environment) on asset recovery are unclear, or where there are no organizational information systems and mechanisms (organizational level) that will allow asset tracking. Likewise, a ‘very good’ anti-corruption policy will not matter much if the institutional structures, mechanisms, financial resources and human resources are inadequate to effectively implement the policy.
