Supercharging Social Procurement

October 30 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am

Free

Supercharge your Social Procurement strategy!

As companies and governments set targets and sharpen their focus on social and sustainable procurement, finding and engaging with businesses that put people and planet first is becoming increasingly important.

Social procurement generates economic, social and environmental benefits above and beyond the value of the goods and services procured and can help support organizations’ broader sustainability & ESG objectives, such as community investment, respect for human rights, diversity, equity & inclusion and supporting local and small businesses.

Social enterprises – businesses that put people and planet first – are key suppliers in effective social procurement strategies. There are approximately 10 million social enterprises globally (1 in 2 led by women), creating 200 million jobs across multiple sectors, and generating US$2 trillion in annual revenue; twice as much as the advertising industry (source: World Economic Forum).

Join this free, one-hour webinar on Wednesday, 30 October 2024 at 10:00 am (AEDT) to hear from an expert panel on:

🔸The benefits of social procurement for your business and for social enterprises
🔸How social procurement can help support your other sustainability & ESG objectives
🔸Key social enterprise credentials, including People and Planet First, a global verification system for enterprises prioritizing people and planet over private profit
🔸Practical steps for setting up or enhancing your social procurement program, including how to identify and engage with social enterprises

Creating positive social and environmental impacts has become increasingly important in meeting stakeholder expectations and delivering on business objectives.

Join Givvable on 30 October [AEDT] / 29 October [EDT] to learn how to supercharge your social procurement strategy.
