Square Pegs in Round Holes: Redefining public–private partnership
Indu Capoor
Abstract
With the focus on Indian experience, Indu Capoor looks at the impact of private–public partnerships on women's reproductive health and rights. She underlines how NGOs deliver many of the services once provided by the State and argues that public–private partnerships must take care to secure the rights of poor women's access to quality reproductive healthcare.
