This e-Course helps improve your understanding of how some fundamental water management challenges can be addressed through private sector participation, a relatively new concept in agricultural water management in most countries. The development goal is to foster sustainable agriculture water services to farmers, a challenge that is made more prominent under changing climate. This 1.5 hour e-course, helps break through the jargon and myth around PPP, especially when it applies to irrigation water management, to understand its core features, the differences between various PPP models, and how a well-designed PPP can help overcome common problems with government-provided irrigation services. The course draws on the recent experience in Egypt, as well as other case studies.
