The Procura+ initiative is hosting a webinar series in the form of two consecutive 90-minute webinars on 9 November and 10 December. Procurers and those interested in procurement will get the chance to learn from experts, all of whom were vital to the process and achievement of including social criteria and clauses into tenders.

The series will highlight five case studies to be published by the Make ICT Fair project.

The first session provided participants with steps to take towards integrating social criteria in ICT Procurement tenders. The second session will give insights regarding following-up on social criteria through contract management.
