This chapter focuses on the role that multi-stakeholder partnerships (MSP) might play. Partnerships should have a multi-stakeholder approach and preferably involve a range of significant actors in a given area of work. The outcome of multilateral discussions can offer insights into problems relating to MSPs, both in terms of national, domestic issues, global priorities, national demands and global prerequisites. MSPs for sustainable development are specific commitments and contributions, undertaken together by various partners intended to support the implementation of transformation towards sustainable development and help achieve the Sustainable Development Goals and other relevant sustainable development agreements. The partners can include national and sub-national governments, intergovernmental organizations, businesses, trade unions, Non Governmental Organisations, academics, religious associations and indigenous peoples' organizations, among others. Public private partnerships are contractual arrangements between single or several public agencies and single or several private sector entities.
