Recognizing the diversity of models and strategies for private sector participation in education that have emerged in Latin America, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) requested the Academy for Educational Development (AED) to conduct research with leaders in the public and private sectors in several countries. While much has been written about the benefits and challenges of private sector investment and public-private partnerships, there has been little research and analysis based on the on-the-ground experiences of education partnerships from different countries. AED met with representatives of the most active corporations and business associations culminating in a two-day workshop to jointly identify the issues and decision-making factors a business faces when it supports education. AED also interviewed Ministers of Education and senior level regional and municipal education representatives to capture their perspectives. Based on the voices, impressions, and experiences of both the public and private sectors, AED identified different decision-making factors and models for private sector support as well as the issues, trade-offs, and success strategies for developing effective, mature partnerships. The authors developed a conceptual framework that places public-private partnerships (PPPs) in education into the larger context of an education system that shows the private sector can potentially have a more systemic and sustainable impact in education through partnerships with the public sector than acting on its own. The collective voices and experiences from both sectors uncovered the following insights on PPPs in education: (1) The public and private sectors have different motives for forming partnerships that can affect the choice of model. These motives can change over time, expanding from narrower to broader goals; (2) As the scope and scale of an education initiative evolve from simpler to more complex forms of support--from donating materials to promoting policy reforms--there is often tension between the sectors. As the scope expands, a greater level of education expertise is needed, and partnerships become increasingly more complex; (3) The type of private sector support will depend on the need for visibility, control, flexibility, and the level of risk a private sector partner can assume. For the public sector, other issues arise such as whether a partnership fits within a government's education plan; (4) Three operative models of private sector support exist. Additionally, hybrid models that organize companies around common strategies yet enable them to maintain their own decision-making and visibility have also emerged in several countries; (5) While there are common success strategies for all education projects, there are also different strategies for the public and private sectors; (6) Evaluation of partnerships is critical, and should include the impact of the activity and the quality and cost-benefit of the partnership; and (7) Partners and partnerships can evolve over time. Similarly, countries are at different stages of partnership maturity with unique enabling environments. Partners can take steps to nurture and improve the context for partnerships. While PPPs can bring new ideas for problem solving, innovation, and resources to education, they also bring challenges and tensions. Understanding real experiences from both sectors across the spectrum of partnerships is the first step in unleashing the power of public-private partnerships as a tool in today's development paradigm. Appended are: (1) Research Design; and (2) Hybrid Models. A bibliography is included. (Contains 17 footnotes.).

This open access book presents contemporary perspectives on the role of a learning society from the lens of leading practitioners, experts from universities, governments, and industry leaders. The think pieces argue for a learning society as a major driver of change with far-reaching influence on learning to serve the needs of economies and societies. The book is a testimonial to the importance of ‘learning communities.’ It highlights the pivotal role that can be played by non-traditional actors such as city and urban planners, citizens, transport professionals, and technology companies. This collection seeks to contribute to the discourse on strengthening the fabric of a learning society crucial for future economic and social development, particularly in the aftermath of the coronavirus disease.

'Far from simply being a form of cost sharing between the "state" and the "market," PPP has been celebrated by some, and condemned by others, as the champion of change in the new millennium. This book has been written by the best minds in education policy, political economy, and development studies. They convincingly argue that public private partnership represents a new mode of governance that ranges from covert support of the private sector (vouchers, subsidies) to overt collaboration with corporate actors in the rapidly growing education industry. The analyses are simply brilliant and indispensable for understanding how and why this particular best/worst practice went global.' – Gita Steiner-Khamsi, Columbia University, New York, US This insightful book brings together both academics and researchers from a variety of international organizations and aid agencies to explore the complexities of public private partnerships (PPPs) as a resurgent, hybrid mode of educational governance that operates across scales, from the community to the global. The contributors expertly study the different types of partnership arrangements and thoroughly critique the value of PPPs. Some chapters explore how PPPs, as a policy idea, have been constructed in transnational agendas for educational development and circulated globally, whilst other chapters explores the role and implications of PPPs in developing countries, providing arguments for and against an expanding reliance on PPPs in national educational systems. The theoretical framing of the book draws upon leading theories of international relations to develop a unique perspective on the global governance of education. It will prove insightful for both scholars and policymakers in public policy and education.

Over the past four decades the wealthiest OECD economies-in Europe, North America, and Australasia- have faced massive structural change. Industrial sectors, which were once considered the economic backbone of these societies, have shrunk inexorably in terms of size and economic significance, while service sectors have taken over as the primary engines of output and employment expansion. The impact on labor markets has been profound: in many OECD countries more than three-quarters of employment is now in services, while industrial sectors, on average, account for less than one-fifth. This sectoral shift in the locus of economic activity has potentially radical implications for politics and society. However, these implications are only beginning to be understood. This path-breaking book is a systematic attempt to understand the distinct political economy of service societies. It examines how different types of socio-economic regimes manage the service transition, with a central focus on job creation and destruction and the changing characteristics of labor markets, and shows that the economic, distributional, and political outcomes with which it is associated vary across countries depending on their political-institutional structures.

Through 18 chapters, this book draws on policy lessons from successful countries that have managed to overcome political economy constraints and reach upper-middle-income emerging market economy status to examine how Senegal can achieve per capita growth rates of four to five percent per year over a 20-year period, as well as lessons for other low-income countries. Contributors working in academia, civil society, and government in Senegal, as well as at the World Bank, in peer countries like Mauritius, Morocco, and Seychelles, and the International Monetary Fund, address creating a sound, balanced, and efficient fiscal framework through new revenue-raising measures, expenditure rationalization, and more efficient public investment; promoting an inclusive and deeper financial sector; relieving constraints on doing business and promoting private investment, including foreign direct investment; and achieving high, sustained, and inclusive growth. They discuss Senegal's macroeconomic environment and what it means to be an upper-middle-income emerging market economy, including the country's industrial framework, the Plan Senegal emergent growth targets, and dimensions of inclusive growth; revenue mobilization, public expenditure efficiency and rationalization, and debt sustainability; ways to make Senegal's financial system more stable, deeper, and more inclusive in the context of the West African Economic and Monetary Union; aspects of structural reform in the country and ways to implement reforms to achieve growth; and social inclusion and protection in Senegal.

Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Pedagogy - School System, Educational and School Politics, grade: 8, University of Dodoma (College of Education), course: Educational Management and Administration, language: English, abstract: Privatization of education service and delivery aimed to enhance access and improve quality of education. This shift emanated from global influence such as that of Washington Consensus and Structural Adjustment policies. Notwithstanding there have been quantifiable benefits from this privatization policy, nevertheless, privatization of education services is doomed to assume more commercial and market orientations which undermines quality of education across countries. Evidently, the private education providers, inter alia are largely influenced by profit-making realization in order to nurse their recurrent operational costs, the market dynamics and clientele satisfaction. With few and inefficient quality assurance and controls mechanism in place, as in case of developing countries, and Tanzania in particular, there is less to expect of any good for the quality of educational product at the end of the term in any educational life span. whilst the question whether privatization is or is not feasible approach to sustain emerges, and whose effects which may be presumably intolerable to other production endeavors in which there is room for remedy; educational services suffer total and irreversible defect. This paper confines to anecdote pertinent question, ‘are there efficient quality control assurance and quality control mechanisms for education services and delivery?’. This is fundamental question in order to analyze effectiveness of Privatization of Education Approach in Tanzania. Moreover, several aspects will be discussed including Effectiveness Inspectorate Boards, Examination and Accreditation boards.
