(English) Webinars: Accession of Brazil to GPA/WTO: Government Purchases and Reform of Brazil’s Public Procurement Framework

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Webinars: Accession of Brazil to GPA/WTO: Government Purchases and Reform of Brazil’s Public Procurement Framework

In May 2020, Brazilian formalized its intention to accede to the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA) within the World Trade Organization (WTO) system. This is an essential step to align Brazil’s public procurement practices with those of the most developed economies.

The negotiation process for joining the GPA/WTO will bring about substantive changes in the area of Brazilian public tenders and contracts, with direct impact on the public procurement reforms currently under discussion in Congress. It will create important opportunities for Brazilian companies and products in the public procurement markets of all signatory countries, among them the United States, the Member States of the European Union and the United Kingdom.

In ten webinars organized in partnership with the University of Nottingham, IDP will bring some of the leading international authorities on the GPA/WTO to discuss with Brazilian specialists the most crucial topics that will challenge the Brazilian government, legislators, scholars and professionals in the process of taking Brazil into the GPA/WTO and harmonizing its public procurement system with international standards.

Webinars in English except as indicated.

Upon registration, participants will receive by e-mail a link to access the respective webinar up to one hour prior to the event. The webinar will also be available in live streaming on Zoom and Youtube.
