About the course

The course will provide an outline of the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) framework. It will enable an in-depth look at Urban Sector PPPs in India and other developing countries. This will help derive insights for future action in this space. There are focussed sessions on Urban Water, Urban Sewage, Urban Solid Waste and Urban Amenities like Markets, etc. A comprehensive understanding of the present scenario will be provided by a critical overview of services, the role of different stakeholders, key challenges, and regulation status.

• This course will start with a quick overview of the PPP framework(s) and move on to take a critical look at case studies of Urban sector PPPs in India (and other developing countries) in an attempt to draw insights for future action in PPPs in the Urban sector.
• Subsequently, the course will move on to look at case studies to understand what has been tried out and whether it has succeeded or failed and why; to help participants draw some lessons for what might work for the future.
• After all the sectors are covered, the course will attempt to round off the discussion on Urban PPPs by discussing sustainability issues (both environmental and social), new integrated and decentralised approaches, and what this would imply for policy, regulation and sector structure.
