Our take
Global Canopy is a data-driven think tank that targets the market forces destroying nature. It aims to improve transparency and accountability by providing innovative open-access data, clear metrics, and actionable insights to leading companies, financial institutions, governments and campaigning organisations worldwide.
Over the past years, the company has teamed up to create a set of ground-breaking open data platforms. Its recent initiatives include Trase, which brings a new level of transparency to the trade and financing of commodities driving deforestation, ENCORE, a tool that reveals market dependence on nature and has been used in high-profile analyses by the World Economic Forum, the Dutch Central Bank and Swiss Re, and the nascent Task Force for Nature-Related Financial Disclosures, highlighted for its transformative potential by UN Secretary-General Antonio Gutiérrez.
With the recent announcement that the UN has adopted a new framework that includes the contributions of nature when measuring economic prosperity and human well-being, Global Canopy's role only becomes more important and promising.
