Fact Sheet for the Gambia's PPP Program.
Document Details:
The high demand for infrastructure development, coupled with the pressures on national budgets, is making many governments move towards encouraging the private sector to invest in infrastructure projects. In the Gambia, a narrow tax base, growing populations and aging infrastructure are straining the Government’s capacity. The Government recognized these pervasive challenges and has therefore adopted a policy to encourage the use of Public Private Partnerships (PPP) as a means of leveraging public and private sector resources and expertise to close the infrastructure gap and deliver efficient public infrastructure and services. Government recognizes the use of PPPs as a strategic mechanism for procuring, financing and delivering public infrastructure and related public services.
