Description

Background

There has been a significant increase in the number of public-private partnerships. The World Bank believes ” Public-private partnerships (PPPs) can be a tool to get more quality infrastructure services to more people. When designed well and implemented in a balanced regulatory environment, PPPs can bring greater efficiency and sustainability to the provision of public services such as energy, transport, telecommunications, water, healthcare, and education. PPPs can also allow for better allocation of risk between public and private entities”. Involvement of the private sector has produced better results in sustainable development. Governments across the globe have made greater use of PPP arrangements in recent times. These partnerships, mostly, produce excellent results for both parties and can have significance for long-term economic growth. The theme of sharing risks for long-term development is common in these ventures.

This Course addresses the need of PPPs to have qualified, motivated and competent managers take the lead. Managers will enhance their capabilities for PPP excellence through this program and will gain valuable techniques and tools to preserve successful partnerships.
