The R20 is a public-private partnership, bringing together subnational governments; businesses; financial institutions; academic institutions; non-profit organizations; intergovernmental organizations, and United Nations Programme to develop and implement measurable, large-scale, low-carbon and climate resilient economic development projects at the subnational level which can simultaneously solve the climate crisis and build a sustainable global economy. This solution is already underway; has been proven at scale; and therefore, can now be rapidly expanded on a global scale.
R20 is a non-profit organization with headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland with regional offices in the United States and China. Through its 24 Members, 43 Partners and 2 Observers, the R20’s activities connect more than 560 sub-national and local governments around the world. More info: www.regions20.org
