(01 July 2020) – The European Commission has just published a report, co-written by AEIDL, collecting 71 good practice cases on how public buyers have implemented socially responsible public procurement (SRPP).

The report, written by ICLEI and AEIDL with the support of Public Procurement Analysis, Dialog Makarna and Social Economy Europe, compiles cases from 27 countries, 22 EU Member States plus 5 non-EU.
The cases address a diverse selection of products and services, encompass all phases of the public procurement process, and include a broad range of public buyers, ranging from local and national governments, to public hospitals.
The report also shows that SRPP is possible in a wide array of sectors, including construction, food and catering, furniture, gardening services, healthcare, ICT, social services, transport, mobility, and waste.
