PPP, Public-Private Partnership
Public-private partnerships are cooperation arrangements between GIZ and private businesses covering the joint planning, financing and implementation of projects/programmes in developing countries and transition states.
These public-private partnerships presuppose a long-term commitment on the part of the private business rather than a focus on their own short-term business interests and rapid profits. Development project/programmes and private-sector commitment can complement one another and aim to achieve efficient and sustainable results.
PPPs must be compatible with the development-policy objectives of the German Government[1].
Example PPP: insurance model for wind energy projects[2]
- risk sharing between private companies and GIZ
- partial reimbursement of costs up to € 100,000, if the planned wind project fails
