<a href="http://www.chaire-eppp.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">La Chaire EPPP de l'IAE </a>de Paris, en collaboration avec le <a href="https://golab.bsg.ox.ac.uk/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">GoLab </a>de l'université d'Oxford, organise un webinaire sur le thème de l'achat public responsable avec Katharina Knapton-Vierlich (Head of Unit, DG GROW, European Commission). Le séminaire aura lieu en langue anglaise.

Public buyers are major investors in Europe, spending currently over 14% of the EU’s gross domestic product. By using their purchasing power to opt for goods and services that deliver positive social outcomes, they can make a major contribution to sustainable development. The current COVID-19 pandemic is reinforcing pressure to step up efforts to deliver on all aspects of sustainability (social/ethical, environmental and economic) through socially responsible purchasing practices. This webinar will be dedicated to the EU strategy to take into account social considerations in public procurement.

« Katharina Knapton-Vierlich joined the Commission's Directorate General for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs in 2010, and she currently leads the "Public Procurement " unit. Its mission is to assist public buyers in playing their part in ensuring prosperity and sustainability in a vibrant economy. We support especially sustainable, green, socially responsible and innovation procurement, and are committed to create a level playing field in the Internal Market. Before joining the European Commission, Katharina practiced law in Berlin, having started her professional career in academia. She holds law degrees from the Free University of Berlin (Ph.D.) and the University of Cambridge (LL.M.)”
