    Village government partnership with private institutions: The case of Mlali and world vision (T) in health and education service delivery
    (Mzumbe University, 2005) Mwaijande Francis; Ngilangwa Nelson
    The study has virtually explored the fundamental principles of Public-Private partnership, that is, the involvement of the major stakeholders in the villages where poverty is immersed. The study was conducted in Mlali Division Morogoro District to assess how the private-public partnership functions. The case of religious institutions, and the World Vision (T) was used. The study used Focus Group Discussions (FGD) and questionnaires to collect that, the partnership between village governments and Mlali ADP has significant contribution towards the improvement of health and education service delivery. There are significant reductions in maternal and child mortality rate due to the availability of immunization services and drugs. There is also significant increase of primary school buildings (in terms of quantity and quality), above all, supply of textbooks and financial support to school children through sponsorship arrangements. It was quite understood that the successes in the Mlali ADP partnership were a result of the principles of trust, equality, shared vision and known distribution of roles and responsibilities amongst the stakeholders. The study, therefore, recommends for a holistic Private-Public partnership model which encompasses the above mentioned principle.
