Bienvenue aux Nations Unies
The UN Committee of Experts on Public Administration (CEPA) Working Group on Sustainable Public Procurement organized a virtual expert group meeting on institutional arrangements and governance mechanisms that could help accelerate adoption of sustainable public procurement (SPP) practices with a view to informing the Committee’s deliberations. CEPA considered issues relating to sustainable public procurement in the decade of action and delivery for sustainable development at its 20th session in April 2021. Topics discussed during the meeting included scaling up peer learning, improving collaboration, using digital tools to support SPP, suggestions for legal frameworks, the role of the national/subnational context and the match between SPP institutions and governance. The meeting was held on 24 November 2020.
