About the Portal

This portal presents information on cooperative initiatives undertaken around the world at various levels by governments, international organizations, civil society, and business that contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The main feature of this portal is a database which presents information on the objectives, thematic focus, regional scope, participation, concrete activities, and potential benefits of the wide range of cooperative initiatives brought to the attention of the secretariat through submissions.

The purpose of the Portal is to provide an information basis for enhanced understanding of the initiatives, and to facilitate interaction between different initiatives, thus serving as a platform for exchange of information and for creating new cooperative interactions. The information contained in the Portal complements the information contained in the second version of the technical paper on mitigation benefits of actions, initiatives and options to enhance mitigation ambition (FCCC/TP/2013/8 , FCCC/TP/2013/8/Add.1 , FCCC/TP/2013/8/Add.2).
