Business Partners for Development (BPD)

www.bpdweb.org is a project-based initiative that studies, supports and promotes strategic examples of partnerships involving business, civil society and government working together for the development of communities around the world. We believe tri-sector partnerships benefit the long-term interests of the business sector while meeting the social objectives of civil society and the state by helping to create stable social and financial environments.


BPD intends to demonstrate that tri-sector partnerships:
provide win-win benefits to all three parties;
can be much more widely used throughout the world;
can be scaled up to national and regional levels.

Business Partners for Development has published a new report entitled 'Endearing Myths, Enduring Truths: Enabling Partnerships Between Business, Civil Society
and the Public Sector. The report provides an insight into the emerging lessons from BPD's four Clusters. It can be viewed on line at:
http://www.bpdweb.org/krg/myth_prev.htm

Reports from each of the four BPD Clusters (Natural Resources, Water and Sanitation, Road Safety and Youth Development) are regularly put on the website
(www.bpdweb.org). It is a great resource for anyone interested in the practical lessons of trisector partnerships.

You can also register at the site www.bpdweb.org/krg so that you will receive the new report by post and other generic reports.
