  2. The workshop aimed at defining how PPP could catalyze educational development in the context of the EFA objectives. • Previous World Economic Forum - UNESCO cooperation for roundtables and sessions at EFA WG and HLG focussed on individual success stories, where the private sector was recognized as an important stakeholder in education. • The World Economic Forum, through its Global Education Initiative, has also identified that PPP is an effective mechanism to catalyze educational reform (Jordan, Egypt, and Rajasthan education initiatives). • The workshop is a turning point: UNESCO and World Economic Forum engage champions to scale up and sustain education PPP’s in a collective process. • Best practice sharing from governments, the private sector, and education brokers • Breakout sessions to address central issues regarding the promotion of PPP’s for education

  3. Participants (over 60) included NGOs, think tanks, government representatives, donors, international organizations, and the private sector.
