Assessing 'connective tissue' in public-private partnerships: a stakeholder survey on multisectoral collaboration in global health.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Public-private partnerships have the potential to advance solutions to complex dilemmas such as the prevention and control of noncommunicable diseases. Knowledge creation, trust, and social capital among partners - encapsulated in the term "connective tissue" - are key considerations for the cohesion and sustainability of multisectoral collaborative efforts in global health.

Methods

A survey was conducted with 23 stakeholders of projects in four countries supported by Access Accelerated, a collective of biopharmaceutical and life sciences companies. The survey elicited perspectives on the factors that strengthen collaboration and develop knowledge creation, trust, and social capital within the multisectoral partner network.
