Capacity is the critical factor for development. Far beyond financial resources, individuals as well as institutions and societies require a multitude of capabilities to achieve their development objectives over time.

Addressing some of the most pressing capacity deficits in Africa, Asia and Latin America, the Global Engagement Foundation (GEF) is a non-profit social enterprise that provides targeted high-impact capacity development (CD) responses.

GEF works with individuals, institutions and societies by supporting the development of knowledge, skills, policies and processes. CD responses are customized according to partners’ priorities and requests, following a systematic five-step process consisting of stakeholder engagement, capacity assessment, and response formulation, implementation and evaluation.
