The PPPUE Innovative Partnership Grant is a facility which supports the aims of the PPPUE programme at the country level. IPG projects are conceived and designed by National and Local Governments, Civil Society Organisations and Private Sector Associations and can focus on one or a number of small and medium sized municipalities in the context of decentralisation and devolution of power and responsibilities to local authorities.
Projects activities may fall under one or more of the areas of support detailed below but all focus on the overarching goal of developing tripartite partnerships to improve the access of the urban poor to basic urban services such as water and sanitation, sustainable energy services, solid waste management and central municipal services.
Innovative Partnership Grants support projects activities in one or more of the following areas of support:
- Establishing adequate Policy, Legal and Institutional Frameworks for Public Private Partnership Development at the Local Level
This area includes support to local governments to remove political, institutional, financial and regulatory barriers for private sector participation at the local level and to create innovative policies, institutional set-ups and legislation which encourage the development of tripartite partnerships in basic services.
- Building Local Capacity for Public Private Partnerships
This area includes innovative approaches and activities to develop the institutional and individual capacities of all local level stakeholders (local governments, business and communities) to create a conducive environment for PPP and to identify, plan, design and implement tripartite partnerships for urban services.
- Designing and implementing Innovative Partnership Arrangements
This area includes support to local level stakeholders engaged in the design and implementation of innovative partnerships to provide basic services to the poor. Specific activities may cover advisory inputs into project identification, evaluation and financing; local legal frameworks, contractual arrangements and business plan development.
