Disclosure of Project and Contract Information in PPPs




World Bank's Open Learning Campus (audio) show

Summary: This podcast presents a review of current practices on the disclosure of information on PPP projects and contracts, and discusses the desired features of a framework for proactive disclosure in PPPs. Many countries have been trying to implement freedom-of information legislation and this includes applying it to their PPP programs, a topic that is addressed in this webinar. In addition, this webinar will also briefly discuss the current work being done by the World Bank and other multilateral institutions in this area. The objective is to disseminate knowledge to countries and practitioners that are looking at ways to increase the transparency of their PPP programs and to streamline disclosure practices; as well as to inform the global dialogue on open contracting.
