Global Council of Private and Public Partnerships for Economic Development (GCPPPED)
is a coalition of organisations that have joined forces to identify the most effective Public-Private Partnership initiatives and provide support to countries, local governments/ authorities in their efforts to put these initiatives into action. Discover the most effective PPP practises around the world. Aid governments in successfully implementing best practises. Helping new and experienced PPP countries learn from one another is an important goal of this initiative. The council’s primary goal is to improve government expertise in identifying, negotiating, managing, and implementing successful PPP projects.
The primary objectives of Global Council of Private and Public Partnerships for Economic Development (GCPPPED) are to:
Facilitate Collaborative Partnerships: GCPPPED aims to facilitate collaborative partnerships between private sector entities and public institutions to drive economic development initiatives.
Economic Growth: The council is dedicated to fostering sustainable economic growth in regions and nations by leveraging the resources, expertise, and innovation of both private and public sectors.
Infrastructure Development: GCPPPED supports infrastructure development projects that are crucial for economic expansion, including transportation, energy, and telecommunications infrastructure.
Investment Promotion: The alliance advocates for policies and initiatives that promote investment, both domestic and foreign, to spur economic development and job creation.
SME Development: GCPPPED prioritizes the development of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as engines of economic growth and employment opportunities.
Innovation and Technology: The council encourages the adoption of innovation and technology in various sectors to enhance productivity and competitiveness.
Sustainable Development: GCPPPED aligns its efforts with sustainable development principles, aiming to ensure that economic growth is environmentally responsible and socially inclusive.
Job Creation: The alliance actively seeks to create job opportunities, particularly for marginalized and vulnerable populations, to reduce unemployment and underemployment.
Trade Facilitation: GCPPPED promotes international trade and trade facilitation measures to expand market access for businesses and boost economic development.
Policy Advocacy: The council engages in policy advocacy to influence government policies and regulations that support economic development, entrepreneurship, and private sector growth.
Education and Skills Development: GCPPPED supports education and skills development programs to equip the workforce with the knowledge and skills needed for emerging industries and economic sectors.
Public-Private Dialogue: The alliance fosters ongoing dialogue and collaboration between public and private sector stakeholders to identify common goals and develop strategies for economic development.
Through these objectives and collaborative efforts, the Global Council of Private and Public Partnerships for Economic Development seeks to drive economic prosperity, reduce poverty, and improve the overall well-being of communities and nations by harnessing the collective capabilities of the private and public sectors.
It was clear that action at the national level would be required to accomplish the aspirations and pledges. Through effective constituencies, the alliance is dedicated to increase collective advocacy efforts, sharpen the effectiveness of commitments, and ensure that they are linked with countries’ interests and plans.
- Governments
- Civil Society Organizations
- External Support Agencies
- Private Sector
- Research & Learning Institutions
We’ve brought different stakeholders together to form an inclusive partnership framework that produces real, collective action at the international level, as well as, increasingly, at the national level.
We acknowledge that a broader range of players, including the commercial sector, research and learning institutions, and civil society organisations, can make substantial contributions to achieve the alliance's objectives.
We’ve significantly enhanced alliance’ interaction with one another, laying the groundwork for development toward a shared vision.
We’re tightening up accountability procedures, and commitments made by governments and donors are starting to find their way into national policies, procedures, and structures.
We’ve moved the conversation away from the global and closer to regions and countries.
We’ve created opportunities for governments and partners to share best practices, resulting in stronger national policies and more inclusive partnership structures and processes.
Stakeholders and people hold each other accountable
- Across the SDG agenda, high-level conversation mobilises political will for water, sanitation, and hygiene.
- Multi-stakeholder platforms led by the government drive collaborative action toward meeting commitments.
- To attract and effectively employ additional capital, investment cases and transparent processes are needed.
- High-level discourse brings leaders together and connects them to other SDG priorities.
- Country governance and service delivery systems are supported by a learning network of multi-stakeholder platforms.
- Better decision-making and analysis are aided by existing and fresh evidence.
The Alliance strategy relies on people who are ready to think, lead, and act outside of their own organisational and sectoral silos, and who have the attitude and convening power to bring all stakeholders together. Individual champions and focal points displaying this bold manner of working should be cultivated and publicly honoured; this is a new strategy that demands active cultivation and continual support from alliance members.
The alliance’s driving element is national engagement; global and regional frameworks support this national participation. The cooperation should evolve and continue to attract additional partners. Such expansion will be an indication of strong collaboration, but it is not a strategic goal in and of itself. A variety of elements, including government leadership, in-country presence of alliance partners, degree of participation of focal points and champions, and Secretariat capacity, will continue to influence the partnership’s ability to engage in each nation.

Delivery structures
The Steering Committee is alliance's highest decision-making body, with representatives from all constituencies. The global leadership group is a high-level group of alliance leaders who fight for and mobilise greater political commitment to the alliance's Guiding Principles and goals. A High-Level Chair leads the Council. The Secretariat assists the Steering Committee in putting the alliance Strategy, roadmaps, and workplans into action. Each alliance constituency should have one focal point in each partner country, whose job it is to increase country-level involvement and coordinate the particular constituency at the national level.
Balance of roles
Political, technical, logistical, advocacy, and strategic functions are all needed to carry out the partnership's agenda. Wherever possible, these functions are laid out in the alliance partnership Results Framework and associated workplans. The goal of the alliance Secretariat is to assist alliance partners in implementing the strategy. All alliance partners share responsibility for the strategy's implementation. The alliance Secretariat and its high-level Chief Executive Officer are well-resourced to ensure that all partners, partnership activities, and governance structures are well-coordinated and supported.
Multi-stakeholder workplans
In accordance with the alliance partnership Results Framework, each entity in the alliance structure shall design its own workplan. The alliance Secretariat will be instrumental in assisting constituencies, regions, and cross-contituency Work Groups in developing these workplans. As outlined in the Results Framework, a similar set of indicators will be used throughout. The Global Leadership Council, the alliance Steering Committee, the secretariat, partners, and constituency groups will all benefit from independent annual partnership health-checks of partnering efficacy.
Learning, review and course correction
High-level management of this approach is provided by the alliance partnership Steering Committee and its two sub-committees, which include annual performance reviews and revisions to the alliance partnership Results Framework. This learning and review process necessitates a robust knowledge management function that draws on evidence of what works and doesn't work in practise, including both quantitative data and contextual narrative, as well as self-reported and third-party inputs. To improve accountability and maintain a focus on course corrections while also finding, discussing, and celebrating successful practises, the process must stay open and transparent.
The Guiding Principles
MULTISTAKEHOLDERS EFFORTS
Multistakeholders efforts are collaborations between businesses, civil society and other stakeholders that seek to address issues of mutual concern, including human rights and sustainability. All hands must be on deck to achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals. It necessitates the collaboration of various sectors and players by pooling financial resources, information, and skills. Cross-sectoral and innovative multi-stakeholder partnerships will play a critical role in getting us to where we need to be by 2030 in our new development era, with 17 intertwined Sustainable Development Goals and 169 associated targets serving as a blueprint for achieving the sustainable Future We Want. Governments, intergovernmental organisations, major groups, and other stakeholders voluntarily undertake multi-stakeholder initiatives for sustainable development, with the goal of contributing to the implementation of intergovernmentally agreed development goals and commitments, as well as the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
SUSTAINABILITY OF SERVICE AND ACTIONS
It is the practice of reducing your demand for natural resources by making sure that you replace what you use to the best of your ability. It is made up of three pillars: the economy, society, and the environment. We work with businesses to integrate sustainability into every aspect of their operations so they may develop new sources of value and live according to their ideals. Organizations must now demonstrate that they are purposeful about sustainability, hold strong ethical standards, and operate responsibly in everything they do as stakeholders demand more environmental, social, and governance (ESG) efforts, regulations tighten, and consumers increasingly expect brands to take action. Companies and brands are increasingly looking to their partners—as well as technology and innovation—to help them incorporate sustainability and make substantial changes that benefit business, society, and the environment. Now is the time for collaboration—for business to join forces with government and society to reinvent, rebuild, and reshape our global economy so that everyone benefits.
LEAVING NO-ONE BEHIND
The primary, transformative promise of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its Sustainable Development Goals is to leave no one behind (LNOB) (SDGs). It expresses all UN Member States' resolve to end poverty in all of its forms, eliminate discrimination and exclusion, and reduce inequities and vulnerabilities that leave people behind and weaken individual and collective potential. The pledge to leave no one behind is a commitment to act explicitly to ensure that those who have been left behind can catch up to those who have experienced greater progress. Extremely impoverished and marginalised groups are sometimes invisible, and as a result, development programmes are frequently disregarded. As a result, individuals who might most benefit from economic improvements brought about by development programmes are left out. But who are these people who are currently being left out of development programmes? And how can we be sure that our own initiatives reach the people who need them the most? These are some of the topics we debate in the Leave No One Behind Platform, along with others.
TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY
Transparency ensures that information is available that can be used to measure the authorities' performance and to guard against any possible misuse of powers. In that sense, transparency serves to achieve accountability, which means that authorities can be held responsible for their actions.
EVIDENCE-BASED DESICION-MAKING
Evidence-based decision making is a process for making the best decisions possible using the evidence available. It avoids decision making that is based on gut feeling, intuition, or instinct and instead relies on data and facts.
INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATION AND AID EFFECTIVENESS
Ownership: Developing countries are in charge of their own progress. Alignment: Development assistance must be in line with the policies, structures, and procedures of the recipient countries. Harmonization: Development partners of donor nations must coordinate their efforts. Managing for results: Management must be focused on achieving objectives. Mutual accountability: All parties must be held accountable to each other.
