About
Initiated and co-ordinated by ICLEI, Procura+ is a network of European public authorities and regions that connect, exchange and act on sustainable and innovation procurement.
The combined knowledge and experience of the Procura+ Network allows us to provide advice, support and publicity to any public authority that wants to implement sustainable and innovation procurement, and to champion sustainable public procurement at the European level.
