“THE CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT RESULTS FRAMEWORK” WAS TRANSLATED AND PRESENTED TO THE PROJECT IMPLEMENTING ORGANIZATIONS

9/8/2021

The Project implementing unit translated The Capacity Development Results Framework to strengthen the capacity of target beneficiaries of the Strengthening Fiscal and Financial Stability project and presented it to the implementing organizations, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Labour and Social Protection of Mongolia, Bank of Mongolia, Financial Regulatory Commission, their relevant departments. The framework, which the World Bank developed in 2009, is a thorough recommendation based on result-based strategy and development maps to enhance local ownership to advance particular developmental goals.

Each year, aid donors spend more than $20 billion on products and activities designed to enhance the capacity of developing countries to make and carry out development plans. However, limited capacity to set development goals, prioritize among them, and revise plans and programs in response to results achieved is a significant constraint on the development process in many countries. 

The Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness, signed by more than 100 multilateral and bilateral donors and developing countries, states that the capacity to plan, manage, implement, and account for results is ... critical for achieving development objectives. The declaration urges developing countries to make capacity development a key goal of their national development strategies. Donors understand that capacity cannot be imported as a turnkey operation. Instead, it must be developed from within, with donors and their experts acting as catalysts, facilitators, and brokers of knowledge and technique.


The Capacity Development Results Framework allows for interdependent and systematic development in the following stages. These include:
  • To guide capacity needs assessments and identify capacity constraints 
  • To engage stakeholders in the entire program cycle and ensure local ownership
  • To define capacity development strategies to apply at community, regional, or country levels
  • To build indicators into program design to track progress and, when necessary, adjust the program for improved adaptive management
  • To assess program results achieved, as well as results-orientation of program design and actual implementation
  • To communicate meaningful results to diverse stakeholders, other practitioners, and donors
  • To compare programs and determine what does and does not work to advance practice

The presentation of the framework to the implementing organizations of the Strengthening Fiscal and Financial Stability project will provide a practical opportunity for donors, implementers, and all stakeholders to reach a mutual understanding and improve the cohesion of technical assistance and capacity building activities conducted under the project.
