Western and Central Africa have lengthy
experience with public-private partnerships (PPPs), both for
water supply and for combined power and water supply
utilities. Cote d'Ivoire's successful PPP dates
from 1959, and, over the last two decades, as many as 15 out
of 23 countries in the region have experimented with PPPs.
Eleven PPPs are studied here, and detailed performance
indicators are reported for six large cases-Cote
d'Ivoire, Senegal, Niger, Mali, Burkina Faso, and
Gabon. These PPPs all have had at least four years of
private operation. Through its successes and failures, the
Western and Central African experience offers interesting
lessons for other developing countries on how to improve the
quality of urban water supply services, increase the
efficiency of operations, and establish the financial
credibility of the sector.
