Know-how in sustainable procurement
This pre-event will draw on ICLEI‘s long-standing work on procurement and the expertise of ECPAR (Espace québécois de concertation sur les pratiques d’approvisionnement responsable) in providing insights on best practices for sustainable procurement. The objective is to demonstrate the value of responsible purchasing for municipal organizations and their partners in their territories. Operational tools and concrete strategies developed in Canada will be shared, and the intent is to hear from international contributors on their use of tools and strategies to address similar issues.
