Summary/Abstract: Sustainable development, a development model that can meet the needs of today's generations without sacrificing the needs of future generations, remains up to date as a result of global warming and increasing environmental pollution. For sustainable development, it is necessary to integrate all economic and social policies of an country with environmental policies and strategies. In the formation of these policies, not only the state, private sector and NGOs but also the attitudes and activities of public private sector partnerships, which are increasingly applied in recent years, are also determinant. Public private partnerships are a financing model based on the realization of certain investments and services through the sharing of costs, risks and benefits with a long-term contract between the public and private sectors. The effects of this model on sustainable development with its advantageous and disadvantaged aspects create a debate. In this study, we will try to find answers to some questions such as what public private partnerships mean for sustainable development, whether it is an opportunity or a threat, whether the public private sector partners need a change in the framework of sustainable development, and various suggestions will be made.
