Climate metrics guide

Climate Collective Foundation and the Aspen Network for Development Entrepreneurs (ANDE) published this guide to provide SGBs, impact investors, and ESOs with a consolidated list of available tools and frameworks for climate impact measurement, along with guidance on how to select best-fit resources based on their sector and impact goals. This guide does not seek to replace any existing frameworks or tools or create new resources but rather to present an aggregation of resources and insights from the ecosystem to provide a starting point for impact management and reporting for climate SGBs in developing economies.
