| Abstract: | Public-private partnerships in urban environmental services have witnessed increased interest primarily to reform the weak performance of the public sector, reduce cost, improve efficiency, and ensure environmental protection. In this context, successful public-private partnerships require a thorough analysis of opportunities, a deliberate attention to process details, and a continuous examination of services to determine whether they are more effectively performed by the private sector. A comparative assessment of municipal solid waste collection services in the two largest cities of Lebanon where until recently municipal solid waste collection is private in one and public in the other is conducted. |
