Summary

Private-Public Partnerships are the way forward for urban development in the South as well as in the North. This volume provides an immensely valuable, practical sourcebook on how such partnerships can be developed in ways that meet the needs of the poor and reduce social exclusion. Focused on implementation rather than policy, Plummer lays out a strategic framework for building municipal capacity. It will be a vital resource for municipal authorities, development agencies, community groups and all those working on urban planning and poverty relief.
