On June 5th, World Environment Day, the Environment Department (DCEA) of FCT NOVA streamlined activities on “Sustainable Public Procurement” and visions on the “Future we want for the Planet”!
At 2:00 pm, Paula Trindade, a former student of FCT NOVA and researcher at the National Energy and Geology Laboratory, gave a Lecture on “Sustainable Purchases”. As this theme is an integral part of the Sustainability Strategy that FCT NOVA is developing, the lecture had 30 participants who had the opportunity to clarify doubts, namely about the application of this practice in the context of public procurement to which the School is bound.
