This paper presents the basic design of the Social Capacity Assessment (SCA) studies in the case of environmental management.

Firstly, it is defined basic concepts of SCA. In this model, the Social Capacity for Environmental Management(SCEM) is defined as the capacity to manage environmental problems in a social system composed of three actors, i.e., government, firms, and citizens and their interrelationships. The Social Environmental Management System (SEMS) is defined as interactions between the SCEM and institutions. According to these definitions, interactions between the SEMS, socio-economic condition, environmental quality and external factors shape a total system.

Secondly, based on these concepts, we build the analytical methods of the SCA. The SCA is made up of the following five steps, (1) Actor-Factor Analysis, (2) Indicator Development, (3) Institutional Analysis, (4) Path Analysis, and (5) Development Stage Analysis.

Finally, based on analytical methods provided above, the aid program for social capacity development is designed in order to achieve the aid effectiveness.
