The white paper "Empowering Human Rights through Public Procurement" presents a ground-breaking framework, the People, Process, Technology (PPT) approach, which drives human rights empowerment throughout the public procurement process. Specifically, the PPT concept is aimed at Contracting Authorities Leadership, enabling them to strengthen their procurement function and effectively incorporate human rights considerations into their strategies, policies, and processes.  

Now is the time to recognize public procurement's immense power and potential in promoting human rights, and this paper sheds light on the critical significance of this intersection. It goes beyond theoretical discussions and provides actionable insights on practical steps that Contracting Authorities can take to ensure human rights become an integral part of their procurement endeavours.
