Description | Background: Public–private partnerships (PPPs) have emerged as a new form of supply in an effort to improve the standard and value for finances of infrastructure as well as government services. However, the implementation of the Skills Development Goals through PPPs is hampered by a number of issues, including political and regulatory risks, a lack of capacity and expertise and dearth of trust and partnership.Aim: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of PPPs in achieving local government sustainable development.Setting: The setting of this article is in the local government municipalities.Methods: Qualitative research methods are employed for this study, primarily through the application of desktop research as well as secondary data analysis. The research critically reviewed studies, literature and online information between 2010 and 2023. The study used Google Scholar, ISI, ProQuest and Scopus search engines to locate these studies using key words such as PPPs, sustainable development goals (SDGs) and local government.Results: The findings of the study show that PPPs have been identified as a potential tool for achieving local government sustainable development. However, a major obstacle to the successful implementation of PPPs is the lack of trust and cooperation between public and private players.Conclusion: The study concludes that PPPs have the potential for SDGs but require trust and cooperation for successful implementation.Contribution: This article focused on providing an overview of how PPPs might assist local governments in meeting their goals for sustainable development. | |
