CAPACITY BUILDING AND EMPOWERMENT

This course introduces diploma students to the foundational principles, strategies, and practices of capacity building and empowerment within communities, organizations, and institutions. It explores how individuals and groups can be equipped with the knowledge, skills, tools, and resources needed to drive sustainable development, advocate for change, and improve livelihoods.

Students will examine the theoretical concepts of empowerment and capacity building, their interdependence, and their application in various sectors such as education, health, governance, and community development. Emphasis will be placed on participatory approaches, inclusive practices, and the importance of local knowledge and ownership.

Through case studies, practical assignments, and group projects, learners will develop competencies in assessing needs, planning capacity-building interventions, mobilizing resources, and monitoring empowerment outcomes. The course also fosters critical thinking on issues such as power dynamics, social justice, and equity.

By the end of the course, students will be prepared to support empowerment initiatives and contribute meaningfully to capacity development programs in both governmental and non-governmental contexts.
