Dear Friends,

Welcome to the Global Partnerships Forum - A unique platform to build innovative multi-stakeholder partnerships, bringing together development expertise from around the world to address pressing global challenges and work towards the Millennium Development Goals. We invite you to contribute your expertise and experience and to share best practice on partnerships which invest in the poor, leading to improved living standards and an enhanced culture of peace and prosperity.

In the short period we have been working to develop this public-private partnerships platform, we have been honored with the strong support, commitment and wise counsel of many global leaders.  Please visit our website for more information on our Founding Partners and Collaborators. We are also very grateful for the countless hours of inputs and creativity of Dr. Peter Rajsingh and Mr. Robin van Puyenbroeck - we have been on this journey together right from the beginning.
