We believe that being open about our own processes and priorities will lead us to make decisions that are rooted in the needs of our users and stakeholders. It will enable us to move, iterate, fail, and retry faster, in the face of the growing climate emergency.

Climate Policy Radar's origin can be traced back to 2009, on the fringes of the COP15 conference in Copenhagen. At that time, GLOBE International—a cross-party network of parliamentarians focused on improving governance for sustainable development, founded by the likes of Al Gore and John Kerry—struggled to answer fundamental questions about climate legislation.

Climate Policy Radar is a climate data start-up on a mission to map and analyse the climate policy landscape globally, to support evidence-based policymaking and investment to drive the transition to a low carbon, resilient world.
