The government of Baden-Württemberg (Germany) is inviting procurers from local governments in the state to a free workshop in Stuttgart on 28 July 2015. More and more local governments are shaping their procurement procedures with EU environmental and social criteria in mind.

Participants at the workshop will find out more about the underlying legal framework and tips for implementation, as well as concrete examples for particular products such as foodstuffs, textiles, and paper. As well as presentations, there will be opportunity for discussion in roundtables as well as one-to-one interactions.

The event will be conducted in German, and is targeted at procurers from local governments in Baden-Württemberg, but welcomes participation from other interested actors. To register to the free event, send an email to birgit.bastian@lubw.bwl.de by 24 July 2015.
