Acknowledgments
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine’s Forum on Public–Private Partnerships for Global Health and Safety (PPP Forum) has been established to illuminate opportunities that strengthen the role of public–private partnerships (PPPs) in meeting the health and safety needs of individuals and communities around the globe. The forum seeks to foster a collaborative community of multisectoral health and safety leaders to leverage the strengths of varying sectors and multiple disciplines to yield benefits for global health and safety. Achieving global health will not only improve the health and well-being of individuals, but also contribute to the strengthening of families and communities, to international security, to economic productivity, and to other elements of social well-being. Progress toward global health is inherently multisectoral and more effective when sectors work synergistically based on the ever better discovery and implementation of best practices. Critical sectors for achieving global health include diverse elements of government, a wide range of academic disciplines, multinational companies of virtually all types, foundations willing to pursue high-yielding investments for mutual aims, nongovernmental organizations that play key roles in policy development and implementation, and other elements of civil society. Bringing together such a collection of stakeholders for innovation and action is a challenge at which the Institute of Medicine (IOM) of the Academies excels.
By regularly gathering and learning from leaders of diverse, exemplary, and innovative entities as described above, the forum focuses on
catalyzing more effective global health initiatives that capitalize on the complementary assets and motivations of the sectors involved. The concept of PPPs to advance global health is well established, and various other groups offer convening activities to develop and share relevant knowledge. This forum, however, seeks to uniquely add value to complement many of those efforts. The membership is committed to engaging the expertise of its members and broader groups of stakeholders, its resources, and its networks to identify opportunities to catalyze partnerships; to elaborate norms that protect the interests of those partnered and those served; to capture and share best insights, evidence, and practices for decision making and resource allocation for partnerships; and to foster innovations that may increase efficiencies and equitable access to effective care.
A number of individuals contributed to the development of this workshop and report. These include a number of staff members from the IOM and the Academies: Marton Cavani, Angela Christian, Greta Gorman, Audrey Groce, Faye Hillman, Patrick Kelley, Sarah Kelley, Priyanka Nalamada, Jose Portillo, Patsy Powell, Bettina Ritter, Kimberly Scott, Rachel Taylor, and Julie Wiltshire.
The planning committee contributed several hours of service to develop and execute the agenda, with the guidance of forum membership. Reviewers also provided thoughtful remarks in reading the draft manuscript. Finally, these efforts would not be possible without the work of the forum membership itself, an esteemed body of individuals dedicated to the concept that violence is preventable.
The overall successful functioning of the PPP Forum and its activities depends on the generosity of its sponsors. Financial support for the PPP Forum is provided by Air Products; Anheuser-Busch InBev; Becton, Dickinson & Company; The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation; CARE USA; Catholic Health Association of the United States; e-Development International; Estée Lauder Companies; ExxonMobil; Fogarty International Center of the National Institutes of Health; Fondation Mèrieux USA; GE; Global Health Innovative Technology Fund; Johnson & Johnson; Lockheed Martin Corporation; Medtronic; Merck; Novartis Foundation; PATH; PepsiCo; Pfizer Inc.; Procter & Gamble Co.; The Rockefeller Foundation; Takeda Pharmaceuticals; United Nations Foundation; University of Notre Dame; UPS Foundation; U.S. Agency for International Development; U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Global Affairs; U.S. Department of State/Office of the Global AIDS Coordinator; U.S. Food and Drug Administration; Verizon Foundation; and The Vitality Group.
