Procurement as a key enabler of your net zero targets
Event Information
About this event
In this final session, a panel of senior public sector climate change and procurement experts will reflect on the key insights that have been highlighted during Net Zero Week. Panellists will be invited to consider the progress that has been made on our decarbonisation journeys so far, as well as what our priorities should be going forward, and the challenges that we may face along the way. Finally, we will consider how procurement can be used to tackle the climate emergency, and the crucial role that the local public sector can play in leading by example to truly champion the decarbonisation agenda.
