DESCRIPTION

Workshop Series

Co-organized by the Multilateral Cooperation Center for Development Finance (MCDF), Egypt Ministry of Finance, African Development Bank, Asian Development Bank, World Bank-hosted Public-Private Infrastructure Advisory Facility (PPIAF), and World Association of PPP Units and Professionals (WAPPP), the 2025 Workshop Series on Public-Private Partnerships Hot Topics aims to build practical skills tailored for public-private partnership (PPP) units and professionals in Africa, the Middle East and North Africa, and Asia.

Following the success of the inaugural workshop series in 2024, the 2025 workshop series features niche and emerging topics, experience sharing, and good practices in developing countries, incorporating expertise from International Financial Institutions (IFIs).

Certificate of Participation

Those who attend at least three out of four workshops in the series will receive a certificate of participation.

Workshop Two: Ensuring Fiscal Affordability of PPPs

The second workshop in the series highlighted lessons learned on ensuring the fiscal affordability of PPPs. It covered fiscal commitments in the current environment of high indebtedness levels, contingent liabilities arising from PPPs, and the Public-Private Partnerships Fiscal Risk Management Tool (PFRAM) developed by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank. It also featured case studies from Kenya, Peru, and the Philippines.
