Need For Public-Private Partnership In The Higher Education System And Challenges In Its Implementation In Uzbekistan

Abstract

This article analyzes the legal framework, institutional and other conditions governing the implementation of the mechanism of public-private partnership in Uzbekistan. At the same time, special attention is paid to the challenges presented by the strong and varied trends toward greater involvement of the private sector in public education in Uzbekistan. We agreed that forms of public-private interaction like those just described, well-established in the context of the history and practice of each country, were different from the new concepts of PPPs in education that have emerged over the last few years. We knew that some of these arrangements had historically been sources of political controversy and debate, over issues such as the allocation of public resources and the secular role of the State.
