GenProcure will address the gender equality in public procurement, many times referred to as Gender-Responsive Public Procurement. It consists of promoting gender equality through working purchases, supplies and services by the public sector, meaning that both suppliers and buyers include, in the agreed contracts, a part that concerns the interests both of men and women, paying particular attention to its development in a way that leads to a reduction of gender inequalities.
