Navigating effective sustainable development partnerships

The Brokering Guidebook illuminates the critical role played by brokers in a cross-sector partnership, and outlines the many tasks that a broker may have to carry out during the life of a partnership.

It focuses on partnership brokering -  that essential intermediary function that enables partners to work well together and ensure the maximum effectiveness of their partnership.

The Brokering Guidebook has been created to:

• Illuminate the critical part played by brokers in multi-sector partnerships as both process managers and behind the scenes leaders – for the benefit of actual and potential partners, external donors and any individuals or organisations that feel that they may be suited to the broker’s role.
• Outline and support in practical ways the many tasks that a broker may undertake on behalf of partners during the life-cycle of a partnership – for the benefit of those currently operating as brokers in multi-sector partnerships for sustainable development.

The Brokering Guidebook was produced by IBLF in collaboration with Rio Tinto, UNDP and the UN System Staff College.
