The World Bank Group – Governance Global Practice’s Open Private Sector program has developed training material for Public Private Dialogue (PPD) practitioners which includes four modules, which constitute a “PPD Primer” for those who want to learn about PPD or improve their knowledge on the topic: (1) Good Practice in Setting up, Managing and Exiting a PPD; (2) PPD Communication and Outreach; (3) PPD for Competitiveness; and, (4) Basics of Monitoring and Evaluation in PPD. The modules provide a set of videos which can be used by PPD experts to build capacity among PPD stakeholders on secretariat effectiveness and PPD management, advocacy and communications, monitoring and evaluation and sector specific initiatives. The associated training material can be found on the Manual for Trainers on Public-Private Dialogue for Good Governance.
