OAT and the CB Strategy The objectives outlined in the Capacity Building strategy, therefore, need to be the driver of the Work Plan Capacity Building activities The Work Plan should include, realign and possibly redefine priority actions identified in the strategy The Work Plan should address the I3 of Capacity Building namely Infrastructure, Institutional and Individual The current Work Plan largely focuses on developing the cross- cutting dimension of capacity building; a bigger focus is required in the Work Plan, through sub-tasks, on developing societal-benefit-area specific capacity building activities
