Registration is still open for the debate on “Capacity building for local development”, 14 February 2023 (LDnet General Assembly)

The General Assembly of LDnet will take place online on 14 February 2023, 17:00-18:30 CET. As in previous years, it will take place online and will be open to LDnet members, friends and contributors. Its main theme and will be devoted to capacity building for local development.

Capacity building for Community Led Local Development   

Capacity building is recognised as important for delivering successful local development programmes. But what do we mean by capacity building or capacity development in this context? What capacity needs are there in Local Action Groups and Managing Authorities?  Should we focus on organisations such as local action groups or individuals? What are the most effective methods to build capacity to deliver high-quality local development? Should capacity building be more than just another training session?  How can we measure improvements in capacity at local level?

LDnet will host a moderated discussion including people with experience of designing, delivering and being on the receiving end of capacity building actions in rural, coastal and urban areas. Contributors include:

  • Stefan Kah: The geography of CLLD
  • Monica Veronesi: Building capacity in FARNET and FAMENET
  • Catalin Tiuch: Capacity building needs, Timisoara LAG and Romanian CLLD network
  • Jean-Pierre Vercruysse: Respondent
  • Peter Ramsden: Moderator
