This primer was developed by a team from the International Finance Corporation's PPP Advisory team and the World Bank's Infrastructure Finance, PPPs and Guarantees Group. It also benefitted from inputs from IFC's Gender Secretariat and the World Bank's Gender department. It was developed through:
• An extensive desk review of the literature on gender equality, and gender equality and infrastructure;
• A review of the project-level experiences of development banks (namely the World Bank Group) in gender equality and infrastructure, and, where possible, PPPs; and
• Consultation with World Bank and IFC operational teams overseeing PPP projects.
