“…Many researchers have sought to find commonalities among PSI projects that contributed to their success or failure. One approach that has been used widely, is finding the critical success factors (CSFs) that attempt to delineate the most crucial areas that are required to ensure management success [24].…”

This paper reviews the partnership between the public and the private sectors in providing efficient solid waste management (SWM) services. While the responsibility of providing SWM services lies with the public sector, the sector has not been able to meet the demand for efficient service delivery, especially in developing countries. In a bid to increase efficiency and lower costs incurred in rendering these services, the involvement of the private sector has been sought. With a focus on major Nigerian cities, partnerships between the local government and private operators in SWM have been analysed based on the level to which the partnership has improved the SWM services. This paper provides an understanding that the success of any public-private partnership relies on the extent to which all stakeholders perform their duties. If the public sector is slack in monitoring and supervising the activities of the private operators, the latter may focus on profit generation while neglecting efficient service delivery. Also, legislation is an important part of SWM. Without the right legislation and enforcement, waste generators will not be mandated to dispose their waste properly. The public sector as a facilitator is responsible for creating an environment for private operators to function, particularly through legislation, enforcement and public sensitization.

“…Raising awareness about different waste management programs is envisaged to have positive effects. Also, proper education and public awareness at the grassroots level were also suggested to enhance management of solid waste as these were expected to generate environmental concern and formation of groups to safeguard environment (Sinthumule and Mkumbuzi, 2019;Muhammad, Sik, Johar and Sabri, 2016). In addition, studies have identified right perception of people towards waste management as a costless way of managing solid waste and the primary mechanism to promote public health.…”

In recent times, with the main purpose of enhancing public health, proper management of household solid waste in low-income residential areas of urban centres has gained special attention among scholars in developing countries. From the sociological perspective, perception is one of the key determinants of the people's behaviour in their society. Therefore this study examined the perception of people about solid waste management and identified the key factors influencing this perception. The study was carried out in the first quarters of 2021 and covered Ife Central Local Government Area of Osun State, South-West Nigeria and adopted cross-sectional research design. Purposive sampling method was used to select 5 electoral wards in the Local Government Area where heaps of dirt was more common and 30 households nearer to the heap in each of the wards respectively. The total sample size of 150 used in the study mainly composed the eldest and active female of each the selected household. Descriptive statistics was used to analyze the primary data gathered. This study found that the residents were aware of the health-related challenges resulted from improper management of solid waste and were interested in reducing household solid waste generated. However, methods, the cost, lack of cooperation and nonchalant attitude of people were among the major potential factors militating against achieving this.

“…Other critical success factors of PPPs also mentioned are the creation of a central PPP unit and a compatible regulatory framework, the development of national PPP policies and strategies and the standardization and transparency of the processes (Amović et al, 2020). However, it is argued that critical success factors are differentiated and depend on the type, location and time of the project (Muhammad et al, 2016) and better results are achieved in PPPs as long as the public sector bears the financial costs and the private sector retains the project management (Moszoro, 2010). It should not be overlooked that state institutions, the leadership skills of the parties, the clarity of technical specifications and contracts and the possibility of contractual amendments play an essential role (Landow & Ebdon, 2012).…”

In recent years, PPPs have been increasingly used to implement projects and provide public services. The governments have made the necessary legislative and financial efforts in order to promote PPPs, given the need to acquire know-how from the private sector and the advantages they bring to the public sector and the citizens. However, the use of PPPs should be carefully planned as, in addition to the wider social and economic impacts, failures and negative results have been observed. This article attempts to present the main characteristics of PPPs, cite their possible impacts and quote their critical success factors in order to make PPPs more beneficial for the involved parties and the citizens.
