Communicating with donors. We have prepared short donor-partnership documents summarizing the<br />
history of each partnership, common areas for priority support, and some results to date, so that you can<br />
disseminate to other staff within your institution, in your home country, or abroad, so that other colleagues<br />
know more about the program that you have been funding and we can collaborate better. We have<br />
shared all of these documents with you, and final versions can be found on the PPIAF website in the<br />
About Us section.<br />
At least monthly, we have been sharing with you and with your teams in country offices for whom you<br />
sent us email addresses, the new material we are writing and publishing. In a visit to one of your offices in<br />
South Africa, we were very pleased to see that the material we have distributed on sub-national finance in<br />
Africa was on the meeting table!<br />
Annual report. On September 30, 2011 we released to you and to the public PPIAF’s FY2011 annual<br />
report; the report was finalized within the time period required in the Program Charter. It provides a good<br />
picture of our program in FY2011. We look forward to your comments.<br />
Preparation of selected articles for publication. We continue drafting Feature Stories that highlight<br />
and comment on current happenings relevant to PPIAF, including selected events, activities, and articles<br />
that are published on PPIAF’s website. We are also regular contributors to IFC’s quarterly Handshake<br />
Magazine, with published articles on Cities and PPPs, Meeting the Challenges of Water Scarcity and<br />
Distribution through PPPs, Climate Change and PPPs, and Healthcare and PPPs.<br />
Knowledge and learning for client governments<br />
Capacity building seminars. At the request of various governments in Africa and in other countries, we<br />
have prepared and participated as speakers at various PPP seminars with the objective of developing<br />
capacity in government officials, explaining what PPPs are and how they can be structured, emphasizing<br />
the importance of developing a clear enabling environment to provide confidence to investors, and<br />
providing examples of how PPIAF assistance has led to specific PPP projects.<br />
