A Aseffa

Abstract

Public- Private Partnership (PPP) is a post-cold war phenomenon developed with the advent and popularization of theories like New Public Management (NPM) and Alternate Service Delivery (ASD). It has become one of the important developmental tools and many countries have also gained significant results by effectively using public-private partnerships in higher education. In addition to the various practical benefits public-private partnership provides both to the public and the private sectors, to the government, to the general public and others, in Ethiopia there are a number of reasons for such partnerships to be established, developed and utilized. More over, the level of higher education development in Ethiopia provides a very wide opportunity for public- private partnerships. Yet, the state of public-private partnership in Ethiopian higher education is very low and unorganized and thus requires lots of effort from all stakeholders.
