Direct Assistance

On-the-Ground support to Cities 

C40 provides experienced regional and local staff to support C40 Cities in defining, advancing and championing their climate activities. In some C40 Cities, we have City Directors who are organised around a regional structure to respond dynamically to local priorities and collective opportunities.

Expert Consultative Services 

C40 also provides expertise to cities to design and implement climate policies, programs and high-impact projects across a number of initiative areas. This expanding area of support, provided by an in-house consulting team and third-party partners, is available to work with the expertise already resident in C40 Cities to pursue local sustainability agendas.

Peer-to-Peer Exchange

Facilitated Peer-to-Peer Exchange

C40 provides a robust platform for peer-to-peer exchange where groups of C40 Cities that share specific interests and challenges can come together to learn from each other and identify shared resource needs. 

Face-to-Face and Virtual Events, Workshops and Networking

C40 organises a biannual C40 Summit and works with participating cities to build a calendar of regular, topic-specific workshops and events and virtual learning that are driven by work happening on the ground.

Research & Communications

C40 provides a research and knowledge management service to its cities; and uses data from across the network to identify successes and challenges, and measure the progress of the organisation.

C40 has a professional communications team in place that gives us the ability to champion the collective and individual action of C40 Cities by broadcasting our achievements at the highest levels.
