Why Partner?
Public-Private
Partnerships
Make Sense. |
The relationship between Official Development Assistance (ODA) and private flows into the
developing world has reversed in recent decades, and the latest figures bear out this
continuing shift.
A new analysis from USAID's Global Development Alliance (GDA) shows how private capital increased
from about 30 percent in the 1960s to more than 80 percent in 2005. In contrast, public funding of
development, once the driving force for international giving, has diminished in proportion,
accounting for less than 17 percent in 2005, even as the total value of ODA has increased. Between
2003 and 2005 alone, public-private flows increased by $52 billion, bringing the total to $164 billion.
Building alliances with private sector partners is critical to leveraging the effectiveness of
public aid to poor countries. Through the GDA, USAID recognizes the vital role of public-private
alliances in achieving transformational development goals.

This document provides a detailed review of the history, sources and methodology that provide the
basis for the pie-chart analysis. Charting of US financing for development was first undertaken
by GDA staff based on 2003 numbers a s a graphic representation of the value of partnering with
the private sector. While many actors devote resources in cash and in other forms to alleviate
global poverty, the power that resides in allying efforts is at the core of the GDA model. |
