The African Healthcare Federation (AHF) has proposed a new Public
and Private Partnership (PPP) strategy for the continent, to be phased in in
three stages, reports NaijaAgroNet.
Chairman of the African Healthcare Federation, Dr Amit
Thakker, gave this description, saying that phase 1, will include dialogue
between government and private sector federations to clarify roles and agree on
a shared vision.
On the phase 2, he said, will include creating or adapting
regulatory frameworks and contractual obligations and the institutionalisation
of PPP Acts.
While the phase 3, he said, will be the project
implementation phase, which will include building and operating projects and
products, followed by evaluation and sharing of information and case studies.
“Innovation should be driven by the private sector, while
the public sector should be responsible for creating an enabling environment
for innovation to flourish,” he said.
