How we engaged investors in public-private partnerships:

Regional resolution on the project implementation was adopted. It established maximum republican funding at 2 million rubles per school and minimum investor participation at 15%.
Project launch required 47 million rubles of private investments.
100 schools' official website was rolled out.
A number of municipal projects won the competitive selection for republican funding. Then the list of all the top projects was published.
The details on each school's condition, as well as photographs and estimated repair cost were published on the site
Project’s PR campaign included:

- producing and distributing 100 schools’ promo video;

- creating and publishing interactive map of schools on the website;

- ensuring TV and media coverage;

- sharing the school students' videos appealing to potential investors via social media.

Face-to-face meetings with potential investors were organized in collaboration with local authorities and representatives, namely:

- Dagestan President;

- Dagestan deputies of Russian State Duma;

- Deputies of the People’s Assembly of Dagestan;

- The clergy, public organizations, and Dagestan representatives in other regions;

- Local authorities.

The ways how investors were to contribute were established and included funding, contributing materials, and rendering works or services.
The funds were ensured to reach the winning schools.
Repair works started.
