Activity 7: Capacity Building and Uptake

Capacity building is an on-going activity that is already accounted for in the projects for which extra-LEAD funding has been obtained.

In addition, LEAD under the trust fund regime, will carry out capacity building activities through the development of processes to facilitate participation by stakeholders, for example through workshops, outreach seminars and the development of training materials.

Mechanisms and structures for effective policy change will be explored, including links with other organisations and programmes, such as the FAO-managed Pro-Poor Livestock Policy Facility. Support will be provided to the different project stakeholders to facilitate the uptake of project outputs through the identification of the needs of different stakeholders and products will be tailored according to the users.
