Abstract
There has been growing interest from
stakeholders around the world in recent years in how to
build momentum for private sector development in states with
poor investment climates. Dialogue between the public and
private sectors, in various forms, has often been integral
to attempts to build such momentum. It became increasingly
clear that there was a demand from the field for guidance
based on international best practice. In 2004-2005,
responding to this demand, the World Bank, Department for
International Development (DFID) and Organization for
Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) development
centre independently conducted or commissioned reports
drawing together lessons learned from field experiences in
using public-private dialogue to promote private sector
development reform efforts. While numerous case studies had
existed, this was the first time comprehensive efforts had
been made to synthesize lessons. The papers were:
competitiveness partnerships, reforming the business
enabling environment, and dialogue public-prive dans les
pays en developpement. The development of the three papers
in a short period indicated a growing recognition among the
international donor community of the importance and
potential of public-private dialogue as a tool for promoting
private sector development with the ultimate aim of poverty reduction.
