- W2960445008 abstract "Capacity building has been considered as a cornerstone of African development for the last six decades. Therefore, the international institutions for development and the governments of Africa have provided a huge amount of financial resources for capacity building during that period of time. Unfortunately, the results of such approach of development have been disappointing to some extent. While one should acknowledge that an economic transformation has been in progress in Africa, many African countries are still struggling with poverty. Some experts of international development have been persistently pointing now the issue of mindset as a serious impediment to the success of capacity building programs in Africa and as such as a major obstacle for a sustainable development of the continent. One has to admit that the issue of mindset has not been taken into consideration in the programs of capacity building implemented in Africa for the last few decades. Yet the mindset is a key determinant in the success or failure of any human initiative. In many African countries, the issue of mindset can explain to a significant extent the weakness of institutions, the political instability, and the uncertainty of the environment. The purpose of this paper is to draw the attention of international institutions for development and policymakers on the importance of mindset in the poor performance of capacity building programs in Africa and most importantly to explore strategies of mindset transformation in order to facilitate more effective capacity building programs and a sustainable development in African countries. Therefore, in its first part, this chapter will point out some critical facts that reflect the imperative necessity of mindset transformation in Africa. In its second part, this chapter will use some theories of mindset to explain some current development issues related to mindset in Africa but also to enlighten the reflection about the mindset transformation in Africa. The third part of the chapter will propose some strategies for mindset transformation in Africa, while the fourth part will be a discussion." @default.
