Tool 4: CD Results Framework
The Capacity Development Results Framework (CDRF) has been developed by the World Bank Institute (see more here). In this framework, three factors are regarded as the CD determining factors (socio-political environment, the efficiency of policy instruments, and the effectiveness of organizational arrangements).

An evaluation of the CD process should consider the learning process put in place with the aim of enhancing the three CD determining factors. The Framework establishes a number of detailed indicators for assessing the three factors and tailoring the learning activities of the relevant programmes.The Framework not only provides the theoretical and methodological instruments for assessing the capacity process as such, but also imparts strong importance to the pull factors, namely the socio-political framework, and other enabling conditions.
