It identifies gaps in skills and knowledge among advocates and suggests areas for capacity building, such as linking advocates with diverse skill sets and addressing policy issues. Key considerations include assessing the constraints to adaptive capacity and how grant-making can support these initiatives.

- 15. 3 So What Are there significant skill or knowledge gaps we need to address among certain types of advocates? Where should we build skills within organizations vs. linking advocates with different skill sets together? Between what kinds of advocates is there a connectivity problem and why? And with what kinds of policy issues will this trip us up? Do “missing constituencies” in the policy arena warrant supporting new organizations or building the capacity of existing organizations who represent them? Where and among whom do we need to support increased time for shared political analysis? What other constraints to adaptive capacity can be addressed via grantmaking or auxiliary supports? https://www.flickr.com/photos/bobaubuchon/7029173397
