capacity building on community development: a case study of Matheniko
County, Moroto district. The objectives of the study were; To examine the
impact of organization capacity building on community development, To
support learning providers to identify, plan and take the steps needed to
position them as key drivers of and partners in community development,

framework for community development.
The study employed descriptive and analytical research design and used self
administered questionnaires. A sample size of 60 respondents was selected.
The findings revealed that. The minimal organizational capacity building in

Moroto District Local Government’s annual plan to work hand in hand to
support the implementation of livelihoods’ related activities in order to
building the capacities of communities in various fields ranging from human
beings’ welfare. They also reveal that, the state and non state actors have

laws that deal with organizational capacity building and train the local
people on how they can be agents of their own development in their
respective communities.

level, Matheniko county level, promoting research and data collection on the
impact of organizational capacity building on community development goes
hand in hand with increased targeting of the NgiKarachunas (youths) for
peace meetings and convincing women to desist from encouraging the youth

markets remain the best in fostering cross boarder relationships a well a
improve security. For in unity and togetherness alone shall community
