This year 13-17 June 2022, WAPPP will host its Annual Congress under the main theme “PPPs for COP27 & Beyond”, with the aim to showcast the latest trends and developments in PPPs globally from both developed and developing countries. The event will include thematic webinars, panels, PPP units' presentations and subject matter expert debates to advance PPPs and particularly People First PPPs awareness, as well as address global challenges such as climate change, Just Transition, green energy, sustainable transport and urbanization, etc.

You can become an event partner and participate in virtual exhibitions, follow PPP Unit presentations, and connect with key decision-takers and strategic investors. All information on becoming an event partner and the sponsor & exhibitor packages are available here.

Accordingly, WAPPP is delighted to launch this Call for Papers on “PPPs after COP26” to all PPP professionals and practitioners from the public and private sectors. Upon being selected by the WAPPP-led editorial committee, the papers will be presented at the Annual Congress. This opportunity will enable you to receive global exposure and have the chance to interact directly with leading PPP decision-makers. Awards will also include cash prizes, mentorship and fellowship opportunities with WAPPP members, and will be showcased on wappp.org.

The deadline to submit abstracts for the Call for Papers is May 15, 2022. More information can be found here, or by contacting Thibaut Mourgues thibaut@wappp.org and Jyoti Bisbey jbisbey@wappp.org.
