Guidelines and Methodology
Why is Capacity Measured?
Country Capacity Self-Evaluation methodology is intended to assist countries to identify their relative strengths and weaknesses, the priorities for capacity building, and their progress over time and against other countries; to target support to the greatest effect; and to assess the impact of donor support.
How is Capacity Measured?
Capacity is measured using an objectively defined methodology, to facilitate comparison across countries and over time. Countries update their scores every 6 months, in consultation with DFI. The agreed scores are assessed against “Baselines” (the point at which support began) and “Targets” (anticipated scores a country expects to attain as a result of support).
