Gold Standard for the Global Goals sets the standard for climate and development interventions to maximise their impact -- creating value for people around the world and the planet we share.
Quantifying progress toward UN goal to ‘Empower all women and girls’
Gold Standard has launched a new Gender Equality Framework to enable developers and funders of climate protection projects to quantify, certify and maximise contributions to empowering women and girls.
With our new Project Marketplace, you can make a direct impact by purchasing Gold Standard carbon credits from projects that protect our climate while helping communities access critical services like energy, safe water, food and education.
Gold Standard for the Global Goals accelerates progress toward achieving the global climate and development agendas by setting the standard on how to quantify, certify and maximise the impacts of interventions toward climate security and the SDGs.

We envision a climate-secure world where sustainable growth brings life-changing benefits to communities everywhere. As a benchmark standards body, we work to ensure every dollar invested in climate and development interventions delivers as much as it can.
A variety of interventions -- from renewable energy to climate-smart agriculture to sustainable infrastructure -- can be certified to Gold Standard for the Global Goals to demonstrate best practices and achieve the greatest impacts.
Climate and development interventions that are certified by Gold Standard do more to responsibly manage the planet’s resources and deliver life-changing benefits to communities around the world. How good gets better.
We believe in a climate secure world where sustainable growth brings life-changing benefits to communities everywhere. By supporting a Gold Standard project, you are helping us achieve this vision. You can support our projects here>> or view the full documentation on our project registry>>
We rely on public stakeholder consultations to make our rule-making transparent, informed and conservative. We welcome your feedback, thoughts and suggestions.
