  • What opportunities and pitfalls lie in public private partnerships?

 

Structure

Strictly moderated debate around the rural development topic for 45 minutes.
No prepared speeches by the panellist to be read. Instead free, short answers to the questions of the moderator and a natural interaction between the speakers of the panel.
The last 15 Minutes should ideally be reserved for questions from the public.
