Public Private Partnerships (PPP) are under discussion because of the mixed results achieved and the deteriorated trust between public and private actors. However, abandoning PPP could represent a severe mistake in public policy. Based on the recent Italian experience, the authors argue that a new approach to PPP, based on the ESG/SDGs and Impact Investing agenda, could represent an opportunity, both for the public and the private sectors, to contribute to solving wicked problems while generating societal value. This Commentary paves the way for a reflection on this renewed approach to PPP and the need for a new set of skills in the public and private sectors to support the transition.

公私合作伙伴关系还有未来吗？

由于取得的结果好坏参半以及公共和私人行为者之间的信任恶化，公私合作伙伴关系 (PPP) 正在讨论中。然而，放弃 PPP 可能代表公共政策的严重错误。根据意大利最近的经验，作者认为，基于 ESG/SDG 和影响力投资议程的 PPP 新方法可以为公共和私营部门提供机会，帮助解决棘手的问题，同时产生社会价值。本评论为反思这种新的 PPP 方法以及公共和私营部门需要一套新的技能来支持过渡铺平了道路。
