Business Partners for Development

Business Partners for Development (BPD) is a project-based initiative that studies, supports and promotes strategic examples of partnerships involving business, civil society and government working together for the development of communities around the world. We believe tri-sector partnerships benefit the long-term interests of the business sector while meeting the social objectives of civil society and the state by helping to create stable social and financial environments.

BPD intends to demonstrate that tri-sector partnerships:

• provide win-win benefits to all three parties
• can be much more widely used throughout the world
• can be scaled up to national and regional levels
