Proposed Forum Structure

Proposed Forum Structure

For the Public Sector, the National PPP Coordinating Unit (NPPPCU) is already mandated to be a focal point

Private Sector needs to choose either to be represented by one of the existing organizations (TPSF/TNBC) or to form a new one

However, duplications and redundancies should be discouraged

Proposed Forum Model

A membership organization accommodating different categories of members

Membership fees to differ based on benefits to be accrued by members from the forum services.

Run by a small Secretariat with 1-2 full time staff

Objectives of the Forum

To serve as a bridge linking the public and private sector for all matters pertaining to PPP development in the country

To stimulate dialogues on PPP policy, regulations, implementation and provide a lobbying platform with relevant institutions

To facilitate match-making, encourage synergy and collaboration between local/local versus local/foreign investors, firms, and companies

Objectives of the Forum

To facilitate sharing and exchange of knowledge and provide complete, objective, timely and useful PPP information to members

To stimulate the development of financial instruments that will serve PPP market and encourage active participation of Tanzanians as equity stakeholders

To spearhead specialized capacity building and development of a local pool of consultants with PPP expertise

Activities of the Forum

To conduct researches, run seminars and trainings, facilitate dialogues, organize meetings, conferences and public awareness campaigns.

These activities will aid the forum to accomplish dual roles; first to achieve objectives and secondly to create revenue streams for sustaining the forum operations

Operations and Sustainability

The establishment costs and initial activities may be financed by institutions and individuals willing to become founders.

At establishment stage, in-kind contribution may suffice e.g hosting the secretariat, sacrificing time and giving professional inputs.

Operations cont…..

Later on, the secretariat may be run by subscription and membership fees, revenue collected from organizing trainings, seminars, and conferences

Match-making services, selling of authenticated data/information may also be commercialized to provide income

Operations cont…..

The government can also be approached to provide support to the Forum through TNBC or NPPPCU annual budget.

Likewise, sponsorship from private corporations and other donors could be sought

If this forum is hosted at TPSF, the Secretarial roles could be attached to someone responsible for Membership Services. This is to maintain a small staff and keep operating cost low
