Building accountability and transparency in public procurement
In the first half of 2007, IISD, in partnership with The Energy Resource Institute (TERI), India conducted a global review of international and national Sustainable Public Procurement (SPP) initiatives. The survey identified four international and 35 national programs on SPP, and reviewed selected regional and bilateral trade agreements and bilateral investment treaties, as well as the national legal frameworks on SPP in Brazil, China, India and the European Union.
IISD welcomes interest from project partners as we leverage our ongoing work to enable more accountable and transparent SPP practices across the world.
