Series of events on sustainable, eco-fair and social procurement: setting a good example and learning how to do it together!

On two dates, in addition to answering the questions "Why do we need eco-fair-social procurement and what does sufficiency mean?", there will be useful tips, e.g. on how to deal with the numerous seals. Christoph Diefenbach, who is responsible for sustainability management and procurement at the EKIR, will be speaking at the event. In addition, three interactive workshops will be offered on both dates: On the first date, we will focus on sustainable textiles, energy saving and sustainable events in the second part of the event. In May, we will then focus on sustainable investments, reducing food waste and electronics.
