Background of the Study
Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are collaborative agreements between government agencies and private sector companies designed to achieve specific development goals. In tourism development, PPPs can facilitate the growth of infrastructure, improve service delivery, and increase investment in tourism-related projects (Adebayo & Salami, 2024). Through PPPs, governments can leverage private sector expertise, capital, and innovation, while private companies benefit from reduced risks and access to government resources and policies that support long-term growth.
Niger State, with its rich cultural heritage, natural attractions, and growing potential for tourism, stands to benefit significantly from public-private partnerships in tourism development. However, the effectiveness of these partnerships in fostering tourism growth and development remains understudied. This study aims to assess the role of PPPs in tourism development in Niger State, examining how these collaborations influence tourism infrastructure, job creation, and economic growth in the state.
Statement of the Problem
While PPPs are increasingly recognized as a vehicle for promoting tourism development, the specific impact of such partnerships on tourism growth in Niger State remains unclear. This study will address the gap in knowledge regarding the effectiveness of PPPs in enhancing tourism infrastructure, attracting investments, and boosting local economies. By evaluating the outcomes of existing PPPs in the tourism sector in Niger State, this study seeks to provide valuable insights for policymakers and stakeholders in the tourism industry.
