WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNT SO FAR? Concept of partnership working

The essence of partnership is sharing. It is marked by respect for one another, role

divisions, rights to information, accountability, competence, and value accorded to individual input. In short,

each partner is seen as having something to contribute, power is shared, decisions are made jointly and roles are not only respected but are also backed by legal

and moral rights. (Tunnard, 1991)
