Social Procurement: putting people and planet first

Abstract

In this seventh episode of Season 2 of The Social Economist, our third mini-series begins! We’re excited to be talking about the topic of social procurement – something discussed a great deal at the moment as a big opportunity for social enterprises. What does it mean, who does it involve and what are the opportunities social procurement could bring? These are all topics delved into in this third and last mini-series of season 2. In this first episode of this mini-series, host Toby Gazeley from Euclid Network is joined by Hina West from People and Planet First verification, part of the SEWF, to discuss the transformative potential of procuring more from social enterprise. Toby and Hina cover many of the key areas of work related to social procurement, highlighting the importance of verification schemes for facilitating the identification of social enterprises and the value of working with a cross-border approach.
