Abstract
This background note was prepared for the Synergos Twentieth Anniversary Reflection.
It provides an summary of two efforts to examine partnerships by Synergos.
One was an effort to improve cooperation between government and civil society organizations in Brazil, Mexico and Colombia through a series of national consultations. This initiative was conducted in cooperation with CIVICUS: World Alliance for Citizen Participation at the request of the Inter-American Development Bank.
The other was a set of case studies and analysis of business-community partnerships in South Africa, Namibia and Zimbabwe. The research was done in cooperation with the Prince of Wales Business Leaders Forum with the support of United Nations Development Programme's Private Sector Development Programme, the British ODA's Small Enterprise Development Fund and the Ford Foundation's South African Office.
Support for the Synergos Twentieth Anniversary Reflection was provided by the International Center for Tolerance Education, International Development Research Centre, Rockefeller Brothers Fund and The Rockefeller Foundation.
