It is an honour to be the Chair of the GLCN as a global network of cities that are taking the lead on sustainable procurement both at a regional and global level. We act as ambitious lighthouses, using procurement as a powerful tool for addressing the critical issues of our time, helping drive the transition towards resource-efficient, low carbon and socially responsible society in our regions.
