BUILD, in collaboration with the International Trade Centre’s She Trades Initiative and the Bangladesh Public Procurement Authority, with support from the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, convened a sustainable public procurement policy survey to identify policy implementation challenges and opportunities. The survey results were presented at a policy dialogue on 24 April at the Six Seasons Hotel in Dhaka.
This timely dialogue brought together key stakeholders from the government, women-owned enterprises, development partners, and public procurement entities to reflect on the progress, challenges, and future direction of implementing the sustainable public procurement policy. The dialogue also served as an opportunity to share findings from a recent needs assessment survey that reviewed the status of sustainable public procurement implementation and monitoring and evaluation practices, with a specific focus on gender inclusion.
