## Summary

The public procurement process conducted by the Defra Network eTendering Portal involves the training titled "Sustainable Finance 101 Training". This training is classified under the education and training services industry category and takes place in London, England. The procurement method used is a direct tender, specifically a single tender action below threshold, with a contract value of £14,000. The tender period ended on 9th January 2021, while the contract period is scheduled to start on 9th February 2021 and conclude on 23rd March 2021.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses that specialise in training services, particularly those with expertise in sustainable finance and environmental policy. Companies that are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Engaging in this training initiative can not only expand their portfolio but also contribute to essential knowledge in mobilising private finance for sustainability, which is increasingly pivotal in the current climate-conscious landscape.

## Notice

Within Defra and many teams across HMG there is a lack of training and understanding of private financing in climate and nature. The latter, most recently, has seen a huge drive internationally to mobilise private finance for nature recovery and with the Prime Minister's announcement of a 10 point plan for green industrial revolution focusing around finance, sustainable finance knowledge is severely needed. 2021 is a key year for these policy areas and therefore this training cannot come soon enough. Participants will overall gain a better knowledge of sustainable finance, particularly understandings and processes of private finance, mobilising this finance and what it means to have a positive environmental and social impact. They will also be able to analyse the role of public policy in motivating investment into sustainability and how sustainable finance is shaped by public policy.
