University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban.ABSTRACT Public Private Partnership (PPP) establishments are usually prone to prolonged implementation due to their complex nature. The South African Government as well as private sector businesses play equally vital roles which, according to their efficient implementation, greatly impact on the success or failure of Public Private Partnerships. As risks are inherent in all establishments, Private Public Partnerships are even more prone to higher risks due to their natural demand for various stakeholder involvement and/or ownership. This study uncovers a case study of the Jozini Tiger Lodge to describe and explore the impact of Public Private Partnerships and their benefits to community-based tourism projects. Furthermore, the study explores Public Private Partnerships in terms of the partnerships’ stakeholders and their roles within such partnerships. The ownership and management of PPPs, PPP opportunities and constraints as well as issues of long term sustainability in Public Private Partnerships are also uncovered. A qualitative research methodology was used as an approach for data collection. The qualitative approach was used through conducting interviews as the main form of data collection for the research study. The study concludes that the Public Private Partnership of the case study of the Jozini Tiger Lodge is a success story as it has contributed to the establishment of the Jozini community and its members. As all PPPs require sound partnerships with various stakeholders, the Jozini Tiger Lodge has not only stood the test of time, but has also made the Jozini area to become a tourist attraction, of which has served the community through the minor alleviation of socio-economic issues.enImpact.Partnership.Community.Thesis
