About Us
The Government of Belize is committed to building a stronger, more resilient nation through the development of high-quality, sustainable infrastructure. Recognizing the need to balance public service delivery with fiscal responsibility, Belize has adopted a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) approach to drive national development.
In October 2021, the Cabinet approved the National PPP Policy, laying the foundation for a robust PPP Program. This initiative established the PPP Unit within the Office of the Prime Minister’s Ministry, which serves as the central body for coordinating and implementing PPP projects across the country.
What We Do
Our PPP Program is designed to:
- Mobilize private investment to meet national infrastructure needs
- Enhance public service efficiency
- Stimulate economic growth while maintaining fiscal prudence
- Strengthen Belize’s ability to respond to climate change challenges
We collaborate with Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) to ensure private sector participation is effectively aligned with Belize’s development priorities.
Mission
To foster sustainable national development by promoting, facilitating, and managing transparent, equitable, and innovative public-private partnerships that deliver high-quality infrastructure and public services for the benefit of all Belizeans.
