Although irrigation offers the potential to increase productivity and provide resilience to climate shocks, the high cost of irrigation and the fiscal constraints faced by many African governments constrain the development of irrigation. Public-private partnerships (PPPs) offer a potential institutional arrangement to mobilize additional resources-including financial, technical, and managerial-from the private sector for critical investments in irrigation (Chimhowu 2013; G-20 Toronto Declaration; Fan 2010). But there are few cases of PPP for irrigation, and previous experiences in other sectors with PPPs highlight the difficulty in managing and distributing the costs and benefits among stakeholders, with women and those with insecure tenure often losing out. Many African ministers and irrigation officials are now raising the need for evidence and guidance on how to engage in the PPP process for irrigation development as they explore ways to overcome the financing gap for necessary irrigation investments in order to meet domestic and international agriculture and food security related growth targets. This research responds to requests from African irrigation authorities for help in identifying suitable PPP strategies that voiced during a SSA-wide stakeholder workshop on irrigation development in Ethiopia, February 4-6, 2013.This research aims to provide guidance to these SSA countries and irrigation officials on developing and implementing PPPs that are beneficial to the countries, private investors, and, ultimately, the end-users of these irrigation projects. This objective will be addressed through research to understand the factors that influence the outcomes of PPP processes and outreach to raise awareness and build capacity for policy makers on how to engage in PPP processes. We will assess different types of irrigation arrangements across SSA and implement in-depth case study work in Tanzania and Ghana, based on key informant interviews and focus groups, that highlight, among other factors, the different ways that men and women participate in and benefit from different irrigation arrangements, including PPPs. In addition, workshops with country stakeholders will employ participatory Netmapping techniques to identify relationships and networks critical for engaging in effective and equitable PPP arrangements. Both local universities and government stakeholders from irrigation ministries will be key partners in the process, along with an international policy research organization with considerable expertise on institutional arrangements for irrigation development. The research will contribute to the successful implementation of Tanzania's and Ghana's policies of encouraging private sector investment in the irrigation sector. However, our lessons will be more broadly applicable to other SSA countries facing similar challenges and difficulties and will be useful in encouraging private sector investment that can bring benefits for investors, irrigation users, and national governments in terms of meeting food security and nutrition goals. The framework, methods, and results of this research will be assembled in a toolkit and shared broadly through IFPRI's networks, reaching a wide and diverse audience of civil society, governments, donors, private sector, and actors. Ultimately, we anticipate that this project will raise awareness about the potential and the limitations for PPP to contribute to irrigation development and will help SSA governments in drafting PPP arrangements that help balance the competing needs of investors, nations, and communities while providing socially, economically, and environmentally sustainable results.An indicator of success will be that within three years governments (irrigation development authorities) in two countries apply the toolkit to ensure more sustainable PPPs that meet food security needs.

尽管灌溉提供了提高生产力和抵御气候冲击的潜力，但灌溉的高昂成本和许多非洲政府面临的财政限制限制了灌溉的发展。公私伙伴关系(PPP)提供了一种潜在的体制安排，可以从私营部门调动更多资源--包括财政、技术和管理--用于灌溉方面的关键投资(Chimhowu 2013；20国集团多伦多宣言；Fan 2010)。但是，用于灌溉的公私合作伙伴关系的案例很少，其他部门以前的公私合作伙伴关系经验表明，在利益攸关方之间管理和分配成本和收益是困难的，妇女和那些任期不稳定的人往往会蒙受损失。许多非洲部长和灌溉官员现在提出，在探讨如何克服必要灌溉投资的资金缺口以实现国内和国际农业和粮食安全相关增长目标时，需要就如何参与灌溉发展的公私伙伴关系进程提供证据和指导。这项研究回应了非洲灌溉当局提出的帮助确定适当的PPP战略的请求，该战略是在2013年2月4日至6日举行的关于埃塞俄比亚灌溉发展的SSA全利益攸关方研讨会上提出的。本研究旨在为这些SSA国家和灌溉官员提供指导，以制定和实施有利于这些灌溉项目的国家、私人投资者，并最终有利于最终用户的PPP。这一目标将通过研究来实现，以了解影响公私伙伴关系进程结果的因素，并开展外联活动，以提高政策制定者对如何参与公私伙伴关系进程的认识和能力。我们将评估整个南沙群岛不同类型的灌溉安排，并在坦桑尼亚和加纳开展深入的案例研究工作，根据关键的线人访谈和重点小组，除其他因素外，突出男女参与不同灌溉安排并从中受益的不同方式，包括公私合作伙伴关系。此外，与国家利益攸关方举办的讲习班将采用参与性网络映射技术，以确定对参与有效和公平的公私伙伴关系安排至关重要的关系和网络。当地大学和来自灌溉部门的政府利益攸关方以及一个在灌溉发展体制安排方面拥有相当专业知识的国际政策研究组织将是这一进程中的关键合作伙伴。这项研究将有助于成功实施坦桑尼亚和加纳鼓励私营部门投资灌溉部门的政策。然而，我们的经验教训将更广泛地适用于面临类似挑战和困难的其他SSA国家，并将有助于鼓励私营部门投资，从而在实现粮食安全和营养目标方面为投资者、灌溉用户和国家政府带来好处。这项研究的框架、方法和结果将汇编成一个工具包，并通过IFPRI的网络广泛分享，接触到民间社会、政府、捐助者、私营部门和行为者的广泛和不同的受众。最终，我们预计这个项目将提高人们对PPP促进灌溉发展的潜力和局限性的认识，并将帮助SSA政府起草PPP安排，帮助平衡投资者、国家和社区的相互竞争的需求，同时提供社会、经济和环境可持续的结果。成功的一个指标将是，在三年内，两个国家的政府(灌溉发展当局)将应用该工具包，以确保更可持续的PPP满足粮食安全需求。
