Capacity Building

Capacity building is more than training. It is the establishment of sustainable mechanisms that allow a community or nation to empower itself by developing its human capital. Developing local citizens better prepares a community or nation to face and resolve development issues in a responsible and sustainable manner.

Marathon is committed to fostering capacity building initiatives that will empower each host community, and subsequently the host nation. Our long-term aim is to create a more favorable business environment.
