Sustainability. 

This session was open to all, but was specifically intended for those who wanted to learn more about USAID’s new approach to measuring local capacity-building based on an organization’s performance improvement in areas that advance its objectives — the CBLD-9 Indicator. The CBLD-9 indicator enables USAID to track capacity development consistently across the Agency’s programs and provides a detailed roadmap of how to meaningfully and consistently measure capacity strengthening outcomes.

The session was highly interactive, allowing participants to learn about the CBLD-9 indicator and examples of its use before sharing their questions and experiences with others addressing similar issues in applying the indicator.
