In particular it examines the role of universities in initiating and supporting local governments in capacity building. It also examines the nature of human, economic, social, civic, political, and natural resource capital as they relate to holistic capacity building. In addition, this paper provides brief case studies of the various efforts of three capacity building programs learning from each other to give added dimensions to these elusive terms. One effort in Serbia involves the University of Kragujevac and the city administration partnership, using a bottom-up phased approach to developing the local government administration to meet European Union standards; the other effort involves the state of Rajasthan, India in a top-down, state wide program and a Special Assistance Programme for capacity building at the University of Rajasthan. A third effort involves all the garment manufacturers’ economic development in Sri Lanka working together with their public and academic sectors in a holistic approach to building the capacity of it human resources and technology to meet the community’s challenges of regional and global competition.
