Capacitybuilding is key to sustainable development efforts and over the past decades has also enjoyed considerable attention in the field of health and development. However, perspectives on what capacitybuilding (or capacity development) means, what it intends to achieve and which strategies are most effective differ, depending on the context and the perspectives of a variety of stakeholders.This book contributes to conceptual reflection by sharing experiences regarding a range of capacity development approaches in different contexts that have in common that they are situated outside formal lecture hall settings and intend to contribute to knowledge generation.In CapacityBuilding for Knowledge Generation: Experiences in the Context of Health and Development, professionals and scholars reflect on different strategies for capacitybuilding, ranging from empowerment, writeshops and strengthening of research capacity to stakeholder analysis, knowledge management and mind mapping. In addition, they present definitions and a framework for interpreting the various capacitybuilding related concepts and experiences.The book contains seven chapters, each of which presents one or more cases of action learning or capacity development. These cases have engaged the research and nongovernmental communities in diverse settings, mostly in Africa. All aim to strengthen intellectual engagement and the culture of enquiry, as part of a knowledge translation process. This means that not only knowledge institutes and researchers participated but also the problem owners, policymakers, practitioners, advocates and other endusers of research. This book will cater to the demand for knowledge and ideas among these same groups.
