UNEP-WCMC (2024). Every Job is a Nature Job - Procurement

This document is specifically designed to help procurement employees identify tangible actions they can take to improve nature-considerations in procurement practices and future-proof the businesses that they are working for. It is part of a series of materials developed by UNEP-WCMC supporting various functional areas.

 

The document emphasizes how procurement impacts and depends on natural ecosystems. It outlines the risks posed by nature loss, such as supply chain disruptions and regulatory challenges, and offers practical guidance for integrating environmental considerations into procurement processes. By adopting sustainable practices, businesses can reduce risks, comply with evolving standards, and contribute positively to the environment. Developed by UNEP-WCMC, it provides actionable steps and strategies for fostering resilience and long-term success in procurement operations.
