We are pleased to share with you the Factsheets on Sustainable Public Procurement in National Governments, which is a supplement to the 2022 Sustainable Public Procurement Global Review. It features 45 country factsheets that illustrate the current state of sustainable public procurement (SPP) among national governments around the world. These factsheets provide detailed information about the SPP-related policies, laws, activities, and monitoring systems in place in each country. They also highlight best practices and provide important links to government procurement and SPP-related web portals, as well as SPP contacts within government.
Many thanks to the 45 national governments that participated in this effort which would not have been conclusive without the generous support of the Korea Environmental, Industry and Technology Institute (KEITI) and the Norwegian Ministry of Climate and the Environment.

Tackling challenges
Public entities across the globe increasingly face two challenges:
1) “The digital workplace is crucial for my organization and my employees. How can I apply green/circular thinking to this essential part of my organization, without creating risks, complexity or high costs?”
2) “How can my workforce become more aware – in a tangible, safe and pragmatic way – that green/circular thinking is relevant for all of them, today?”.
In this fascinating interview Shaun speaks about how the @Supply Chain Sustainability School developed from his work on the London 2012 Olympics and how the lessons learned there are shaping supply chain practices within the industry.
Sustainability has long been a pressing issue on the minds of many socially conscious consumers and business owners alike, and for good reason – the planet’s ecosystem depends on it.
For vital industries like construction and manufacturing, the need to recognize and act upon the vast importance of sustainability is not only a sensible business decision but also a duty to the natural world.
