The wider objective of the Capacity and Institution Building (CIB) Working Group is to advance the effectiveness and quality of international policies and programs of local and regional governments and their associations.

The specific objectives of 2021 - 2023 are:
1. General information exchange related to policies and programs implemented by CIB members and fostering of coordination among CIB members to avoid overlaps and to create synergies

3. Support the implementation of and reporting on international agendas and policies
4. Support the development of a shared narrative and building evidence, to feed advocacy efforts and increase recognition of the role of local government in development cooperation.
5. Alignment and collaboration of CIB members' work with UCLG's strategic priorities
For 2022 the core activities include:
? Finalisation of new Policy paper on Development Cooperation & Local Governments
