Capacity development in South Asia

This report analyses the impact of several ADB capacity building interventions from the rural infrastructure and power sectors in Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka; the capital markets subsector in Bangladesh; and the livestock subsector in Nepal.

Every year, ADB invests substantial resources in assisting its counterpart executing agencies to increase their capacities.
The study analyzes the impact of ADB's CD interventions on the capacity of key executing agencies to perform their functions and how this impact could be further enhanced.

The study also identifies important problems and lessons. To further enhance the impact of CD interventions in South Asia, the study proposes a major change in the way ADB supports CD.

The report is available for download in chapters or in it's entirety from this page.
