About CDP Cities
CDP Cities provides a global platform for municipal governments to disclose greenhouse gas emissions, climate change risks, adaptation actions, and other data. Cities seek capital to meet their ambitious climate goals but face barriers in accessing financing. To overcome these barriers, CDP launched Matchmaker, a service that engages in consultations with over 300 cities around the world to create an inventory of sustainability and climate-related municipal projects. The Matchmaker dashboard showcases climate-related investment opportunities in cities to investors.
