Culture of a community include; their norms, value, beliefs, social organization, leadership, resources and systems of social controls.

2. Community participation

3. Mobilization and millennium development goals (MDGS)
These are activities that the world over wants to engage in and achieve in the long run.

4. Resources
These are necessary items needed for the capacity building. These are usually internal resources (those found within the community) and extended resources (those generated by the intervening organizations.)

5. Leadership
Successful capacity building activities requires a leadership that is dedicated and able to unite the community to achieve their objective without being torn apart by internal or external wrangling.

6. Unity of the community
It is important to know that capacity building relies on unity of the community. Anything that exacerbates clearances or conflicts in the community will lessen the likelihood of success of the capacity building process.

7. Social organizations
These provide a platform through whish capacity building strategies can be implemented. They include; clan association, religious groupings, co-operatives, Harambee and self – help groups, mutual aid and welfare societies, savings and credit unions.
