Sustainable Public Procurement

Sustainable Public Procurement (SPP) refers to the process by which governments and public institutions purchase goods and services in a way that considers environmental, social, and economic impacts. This approach aims to promote sustainability by prioritizing products that are eco-friendly, ethically produced, and support local economies. It encourages transparency and accountability, ensuring that taxpayers' money is spent responsibly. SPP aligns with public procurement laws, which establish guidelines and standards for government purchasing, to foster responsible consumption and reduce negative effects on society and the environment.
