| Sumario: | This article is based on a case study of environmental and natural resource (ENR) capacity strengthening efforts in Malawi between 1994 1999.The overall objective...was to strengthen the capacity of the Malawian policy analysts in the food, agricultural, and natural re-source sectors. It reports on the process and the lessons learned from the experiences and insights gained in developing institutional and human capacity through graduate programs and short-term training courses in ENR policy analysis. The lessons from the Malawi exercise show that the elements of a successful capacity strengthening effort include assessing the needs for capacity strengthening, designing and implementing courses that match the capacity needs and institutionalizing these courses within local institution for sustainability. |
