Public-Private Partnerships In Education: A Management Perspective On Achieving SDG Targets

Abstract

Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) function as vital mechanisms which drive achievement of global development goals especially in educational contexts. PPPs represent a potential framework for SDG 4 which aims to provide all people with inclusive equitable quality education and its infrastructure needs by establishing collaborations between public and private stakeholders. This study evaluates educational public-private partnerships through management research to determine how these alliances support the accomplishment of SDGs. Through theoretical as well as empirical support the paper delivers recommendations to education administrators and policymakers about how to use PPPs for global educational advancement.
