Corporate ownership

Global Climate Action Portal is part of United Nations.

Quick description

The Global Climate Action portal is an online platform where actors from around the globe – countries, regions, cities, companies, investors and other organizations – can display their commitments to act on climate change. I was launched by UN Climate Change (UNFCCC) in 2014. 

UN’s Global Climate Action Portal is used by over 10 000 entitites and to report on a variety of climate action through a network of data providers (including CDP). The Actor Tracking function measures ambition (commitements), robustness (emission inventory, risk assessement, initiative participation, climate action plan) and implementation and progress (action undertaken, impact). Data is also available in NDCs per country.
