The European Commission is organizing training workshops on socially responsible public procurement (SRPP) aimed at public authorities and social economy entities in 12 Member States. The first events will take place in Belgium, Lithuania, Portugal and Estonia in the national languages.

Civil servants and/or procurers will learn to: 

• Design tendering procedures which include social considerations and are accessible to the social economy.
• Incorporate social considerations throughout the procurement process.
• Understand the social economy better.

Social economy entities (SEE) will learn to:

• Compete for tenders with social considerations.
• Form consortia with conventional businesses or other social economy entities or become subcontractors.
