In order to assist with the conference, we delivered a session titled ‘Closing the funding gap – Financial Mechanisms’, which included topics on alternative funding, project bonds, mobilising finance and the role of bi-lateral donors. Another session delivered by us was titled ‘Revenue from tourism can substantially add to the GDP of a country’, with topics on Eco-Tourism PPPs, developing heritage sites, airport development and creating tourism PPP frameworks. As well as this, we also acted as speakers and panelists on industry expert panel discussions; this allowed us to expand on key questions, issues and opportunities for PPPs in Africa.
