Foreword

Used strategically, public procurement can contribute to the implementation of the 2030 Agenda on Sustainable Development (SDGs) as it can support achieving broader policy objectives in many domains, from innovation to social and economic dimensions. Additionally, public procurement is a powerful tool for fulfilling the objectives of the European Green Deal, which emphasises the need to take climate and environmental criteria into account in all policy areas and calls upon governments to lead by example by investing in environmentally friendly technologies, ensuring the energy efficiency of buildings, and using sustainable and green public procurement.
