Social Procurement Advocacy Program underway

In partnership with the Social Procurement Network, we are gathering sector insights to help strengthen advocacy efforts and inform the future of the Victorian Social Procurement Framework (SPF).

The results of this survey will contribute to a collaborative Advocacy Program that Social Procurement Australasia is facilitating with organisations including: ICN, White Box, Sedo Group, The Fair Co, Social Traders and Kinaway.

With the upcoming State Government election on the horizon, this work is critical. We are committed to keeping social procurement firmly on the agenda. We want to ensure that decision-makers understand what’s working, where barriers exist, and what improvements are needed to maximise social and sustainable outcomes across Victoria.

We’re inviting practitioners, suppliers, and stakeholders across the ecosystem to contribute to a short, anonymous survey. It will take approximately 5 minutes to complete.

Your insights will help us:

• Identify what’s working well

• Understand key challenges and barriers

• Shape clear, evidence-based advocacy priorities

• Strengthen the case for continued leadership in social procurement.

There is also an opportunity within the survey to express your interest in getting more involved in this advocacy work. We welcome sector champions who want to help drive this agenda forward.

Please also consider sharing this survey with your networks! The stronger and more representative our collective voice, the more impact we can have.

Thank you for your time, insight, and leadership in advancing social procurement.
