Building on previous work, the international literature, the results of recently completed and ongoing impact evaluations, and the 

World Development Report 2004 (World Bank 2003a) framework, this book presents a conceptualization of the issues related to PPPs, a detailed review of studies with rigorous evaluations, and guidelines on how to create successful PPPs in education. The World Bank has been involved in exploring the private sector’s participation in the provision of public goods for several years (see Bell 1995 for a general overview).
