(ج) إن بناء القدرات المتصلة بتغير المناخ يزداد استدامة إذا ما أجري تقييم سليم لاحتياجات المؤسسات الرئيسية المعنية بالمناخ وأتيح التدريب للأفراد كجزء من عملية ترمي إلى تعزيز القدرة المؤسسية الوطنية في المجال الرئيسي لتغير المناخ، سواء في القطاع الخاص أو القطاع العام أو المجتمع الأكاديمي أو المجتمع المدني؛
Strategies and initiatives that consider national capacity in an integrated manner have better chances of ensuring sustainable outcomes by identifying and acting on potential bottlenecks that might prevent the mobilization of the capacity being developed; Some of the causes of the lack of sustainability are: lack of involvement of key decision makers; complex institutional policies including overly bureaucratic systems; lack of integrated/cross-sectoral approaches to environmental protection and more specifically climate change; Building climate change capacity is more sustainable if a proper institutional needs assessment of core climate institutions is undertaken and individuals that are trained are trained as part of a process to strengthen the national institutional capacity in the climate change focal area, be it in the private sector, public sector, academia or civil society; Sustainability of capacity-building programmes relating to climate change is optimized by integrating them into national planning and sustainable development strategies, and by ensuring that climate change activities are linked directly to national priorities; When designing and implementing capacity-building activities, attention must be paid to the various issues to be considered when building capacity, be it at the systemic, institutional or individual levels; Adequate strategies to address financial sustainability and resource allocation must be built from the outset in capacity-building projects and programmes.
