Sustainable public procurement in Georgia

Since the beginning of the year, as part of the EU-funded EU4Environment programme, UNEP has continued its engagement with the Georgian Environmental Information and Education Centre and procurement authorities to review and elaborate legislation on Sustainable Public Procurement (SPP). EU4Environment will assist the State Procurement Agency in drafting concrete legal provisions/articles, by-laws and guidelines on SPP. UNEP will also organise a series of awareness raising events to help businesses better respond to public tenders with sustainability criteria.
