I. RATIONALE

Capacity building has become central goals of development organizations working

in developing countries to rural development programs in reducing poverty and
empowering local people for livelihood improvement. Development organizations tended
to transfer modern technology to farmers or provide formal education to rural communities.
These activities are conducted by government or non-government organization
researchers and extension workers, with involvement of local people. Improving capacity
building of individuals, groups, organizations and communities is therefore necessary for
rural development, poverty alleviation and environmental protection. Eade (2007) pointed
out that if you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, and if you teach him to fish, you
feed him for a lifetime. Building the capacity of local people, groups and organizations is
vital because they must have the ability and responsibility to resolve their problems and
develop their communities. Whereas the concept of capacity translates assets and abilities
into performance, the concept of capacity building is associated with transformation
processes and increments in capacities or performance. The act of increasing capacities
encompasses the enhancement of abilities to use assets productively. A major challenge
facing food security projects is ensuring their capacity building activities are not only
instrumental to the success of a specific project component, but that the new capacities
will be put to use and contribute to the sustainability of food security in communities over
the long-term. Therefore, food security projects can increase communities’ asset bases by
investing in training and providing other material and physical inputs, by developing new
tools and by increasing the population’s knowledge level in agriculture, specifically in
Banana Production, Corn Production and Rice Production. In project management,
capacity building is an approach to strengthen designing, implementation, monitoring,
management, and evaluation of projects.
