The Role of Public-Private Partnerships in Encouraging Achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the Health Sector

Abstrak

This research explores the role of Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) in promoting the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within the health sector. As global health challenges grow, the need for innovative solutions has led to increased collaboration between public and private sectors. This study aims to examine how PPPs contribute to improving healthcare access, infrastructure, and service delivery, particularly in underserved regions, and to assess their impact on the achievement of SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being). Using a qualitative research approach, the study employs case studies of various PPP models in healthcare, with data collected through semi-structured interviews and document analysis of policy reports and healthcare projects. The findings indicate that PPPs are effective in expanding health infrastructure and improving service delivery, especially in resource-poor areas. However, the study also identifies key challenges, including misalignment of goals between public and private stakeholders, financial sustainability, and inadequate community engagement. The research concludes that for PPPs to successfully contribute to the SDGs, stronger regulatory frameworks, clear goal alignment, and greater community involvement are essential. This study contributes to the existing literature by providing a comprehensive analysis of the factors influencing the success of PPPs in healthcare and offers practical recommendations for optimizing these partnerships to achieve sustainable development in the health sector.
