“…Moreover, circular procurement can also be understood as an approach that recognises the role that private and public authorities have in supporting the transition towards CE. Circular public procurement can significantly advance the adoption of circular business models by requiring green products and additional circularity goals in cooperation with suppliers (Tátrai and Diófási-Kovács, 2021).…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the benefits and challenges of implementing circular economy (CE), as well as shed light on the influence of procurement strategy in CE implementation in construction projects. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative research approach with abductive reasoning was adopted. The empirical data were collected from the construction industry in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Findings The results reveal that clients, consultants and contractors have limited awareness, knowledge and motivation to implement CE in construction projects. The absence of incentives to design projects following CE principles, lack of involvement of contractors and suppliers, non-use of materials that use CE principles and current procurement strategies are the main challenges for the implementation of CE in the UAE. Originality/value Previous research offers limited knowledge on CE and its implementation in construction projects particularly from a procurement strategy perspective. The findings of the study provide new knowledge of the benefits, challenges and role of procurement strategy for implementing CE. It is suggested that collaborative and partnering-based procurement methods are needed to facilitate the effective implementation of CE.

“…A systematic evaluation of the specialized literature was made to gather information regarding the issue [91]. The study's findings demonstrated that, despite the free market, the EGD prioritizes the environment and has an impact on entrepreneurial activity [92]. The EGD outlines the backdrop of governmental regulations and interventions that would distort entrepreneurial and competitive processes via fiscal tools, policies and other mechanism in order to accomplish the stated aims [93].…”

The European Union (EU) hopes to motivate a sustainable green transition in response to widespread concern that the earth is heading toward environmental calamities due to climatechange issues. The present study focused on analyzing the impact of the EGD on Agricultural carbon emissions in Turkey. European Union and Turkey have strong trade relations; Turkey exports a significant portion of its exports to the European Union. This fact made it compulsory for Turkey to follow the regulations implemented in the EU regarding trade. In reaction to the European Union's EGD, Turkey formulated EGD Action Plan, this plan laid down the roadmap for Turkey to follow the regulations under the EU's EGD. Agriculture carbon emissions in Turkey and EGD are taken as the variables for the study. In the present report, an attempt has been made to analyze impact of the EGD on agriculture carbon emissions. In study, we consider agriculture CO2 emissions as the dependent-variable and the EGD as the independentvariable. Secondary data from the various published sources have been collected and analyzed with statistical tools, and findings are drawn from them. Statistical tools like Unit Root Tests, the Ordinary Least Square Test, and Auto regressive distributed lag model, are used to interpret the impact. The result of our study shows that EGD significantly impacts agriculture carbon emissions.

“…27 Still, a mandatory EU exclusion would be more consistent with holding sustainability as a cardinal value in the scheme of EU procurement legislation. 28 Instead, exclusion is mandatory under EU law only in case of child labour (Art. 57(1)(f), which is also covered by just one of the many international instruments listed in Annex X (ILO Convention 182 on Worst Forms of Child Labour).…”

The 2014 procurement and concessions directives have clarified the possibilities that exist for referring to social considerations in public procurement (and socially responsible public procurement). Still, these rules fall, in the main, well short of being mandatory and instead leave wide margins to Member States and their contracting authorities which do not wish to consider social and human rights concerns when buying. Furthermore, concerns about ensuring the widest competition possible may limit reference to social considerations. Recently proposed reforms may however go a long way towards more sustainable production and procurement.
