The Living Planet NGO, together with the Ministry of Economy, Environment and Agriculture of Ukraine and the Prozorro State Enterprise, invites you to participate in a series of free online webinars dedicated to environmental requirements in public procurement.
Green public procurement is part of European policy. The European Commission defines it as an approach that allows the procurement of goods, works and services with a reduced environmental impact throughout their entire life cycle.
In Ukraine, the application of environmental requirements is directly provided for by law, and during webinars, experts will explain how to do it correctly.
10 thematic events - from general approaches to the application of environmental requirements in procurement to practical solutions for individual categories of goods and materials: food, construction, detergents, furniture, paper, plastics, and computer equipment.
The webinars will address practical issues:
Is it possible to set environmental characteristics in a tender and not receive a complaint to the AMCU?
How to correctly formulate environmental requirements in a technical specification?
What certificates, standards and markings does the customer have the right to require?
How to apply non-price criteria and not violate the law?
How to estimate the life cycle cost of a product or service?
How to avoid common mistakes when setting environmental requirements?
What environmental characteristics actually work for different procurement categories?
How to make purchasing not only cheaper, but also more environmentally efficient?
Maximum practice: ready-made wording for tender documentation, typical mistakes and solutions, which are already systematized in the "Environmental Requirements" section on Infobox Prozorro .
The webinars are organized by the Living Planet NGO together with the Ministry of Economy, Environment and Agriculture of Ukraine and SE Prozorro. They are introducing a series of free webinars on the practical application of environmental requirements in public procurement for various product categories.
