Public-Sector Capacity Building for Development



The public sector, which includes government at all levels, is a central actor in almost all development activities. Its policies, programs, and services lay the foundation for progress on health, education, private-sector-led economic growth, trade, environmental sustainability, and equality between women and men.

Development success depends on an effective public sector, with strong institutions, well-qualified employees, and processes that include consultation with the public, reward merit, and sanction inefficiency and corruption.

In relation to public-sector capacity building, The universal goal is to build strong institutions that have the vision and the administrative and professional capacities to support national development objectives effectively, equitably, and inclusively. Global assistance includes strengthening of technical and managerial competencies including oversight, accountability, and anti-corruption measures; organizational, administrative and policy reform; and decentralization of government so that it is closer to the people.
