| Title | Sustainability of Acquired Capacities A Case Study of a Development Program in Northern Hungary |
| Summary | The objective of the paper is to connect the experiences and results in the field of community development, capacity building and economic development of a social and economic development program ran by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in the geographic region of the Cserehát in Northern Hungary, and the social capital literature which carved out a prominent position in both social and economic sciences since the beginning of the 1990s. In parallel to the identification of what role social capital has and what aspects of it are involved in development in general and the program in particular, our attention will focus on the sustainability of the acquired new or reinforced capacities. Sustainability means whether the capacities can be leveraged by the subjects of the program after its end, thus once the UNDP’s agency is over. |
