The LIFE FUTURE – “Sustainable Urban FUrniTURE: Tool design to perform environmental assessments in the green procurement framework” was a 39-month project financed by the LIFE programme of the European Commission that started on 01/10/2015 and ended on 31/12/2018.

The LIFE FUTURE project developed and validated an online tool, the GUF Tool, to promote green public procurement (GPP) of urban furniture. Specifically, the GUF Tool guides users throughout the whole tender process for public procurement of urban furniture in which environmental impacts are willing to be considered.

The report offers an overview of the project and explains its main outcomes.
