🌱 Sustainable procurement: a hidden superpower driving social progress, environmental restoration, and economic growth. In New Zealand, the Ōtākaro Avon River Corridor Project is a stellar example of how strategic procurement decisions can reshape entire communities, economies, and ecosystems. By integrating broader outcomes into procurement strategies, this initiative not only revived native ecosystems and revitalized Māori culture, but also boosted the local economy by USD 1.6 billion. Beyond the economic impact, the project is breathing new life into the environment. Native ecosystems are being restored, and biodiversity is flourishing. Read how sustainable procurement can create ripple effects—and learn how you can apply these strategies to make a difference in your organization.
