This Climate Initiatives Platform is being hosted by UNEP and the UNEP DTU Partnership, through a project funded by the government of the Netherlands.

The platform contains a comprehensive collection of information on international climate mitigation initiatives currently in operation that have potential to contribute to reduction of greenhouse gas emissions; are international in scope or have the potential for significant impact at global scale; and are dialogues, formal multilateral processes or implementation initiatives.

The information on the ICIs includes: Thematic focus, type of initiative, description, goal and activities, participant, funders etc. Use the links above to browse or search the existing data.

CIP was built on a wiki format to enable collaborative development and flexible use. The purpose is to provide an on-line space that allows contributions from participating organisations and users to ensure it remains accurate and up-to-date.

After 1st of January 2016 CIP was taken over by UNEP DTU Partnership. The authors cannot be held liable for the timeliness, correctness and completeness of the information included.
