Achieving The Goal
From its inception, WSA and its Member States recognized that the imperative of making the organization and activities self-funding and self-sustaining in order to achieve its goals.
As expressed in the Forward and in Chapter Five of its Unleashing Entrepreneurship, (http://www.undp.org/cpsd/report/index.html), the Commission on the Private Sector and Development’s report to the Secretary General of the United Nations of March 2004, identified specific courses of action for the Public, Private, and Public-Private Sectors for achieving growth, equitable development, and an enabling environment. (6) These recommendations by area include:
1. In the public sphere, promoting the reform of laws, regulations and other barriers to growth. 2. In the public-private sphere, facilitating cooperation and partnerships between public and private players to enhance access to such key factors as financing, skills and basic services. 3. In the private sphere, encouraging the development of business models that can be scaled up and copied and that are commercially sustainable.
Acting on and applying these recommendations, and working closely with the Heads of State, Prime Ministers, Ministers and the Civil Society in each of its Member States, WSA developed a business model for the creation of Public-Private Partnerships (PPP).

Famous quotes containing the words achieving the, achieving and/or goal:
“If mothers are to be successful in achieving their child-rearing goals, they must have the inner freedom to find their own value system and within that system to find what is acceptable to them and what is not. This means leaving behind the anxiety, but also the security, of simplistic good-bad formulations and deciding for themselves what they want to teach their children.”
—Elaine Heffner (20th century)
“Virtues are not emotions. Emotions are movements of appetite, virtues dispositions of appetite towards movement. Moreover emotions can be good or bad, reasonable or unreasonable; whereas virtues dispose us only to good. Emotions arise in the appetite and are brought into conformity with reason; virtues are effects of reason achieving themselves in reasonable movements of the appetites. Balanced emotions are virtue’s effect, not its substance.”
—Thomas Aquinas (c. 1225–1274)
“Postmodern agenda: the peep show is the art form; the voyeur is the protagonist; the goal is excitement from a safe distance; the alibi is that it’s all ironic.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
