Résumé

The introduction to a WHO Bulletin issue that discusses PPPs with the pharmaceutical industry. The author note that an undue amount of emphasis is often placed on concerns about the ‘public-private’ aspect of P3s with not enough attention given to the role of ‘partnership’ in P3s. In speaking about P3s the author notes that “partnership implies a commitment to a common goal through the joint provision of complementary resources and expertise, and the joint sharing of the risks involved” (p. 1, note these elements of partnership are ascribe to university and community partners in the ANSER paper, however, it is used differently in the original).
