Gold Standard for the Global Goals is an innovative impact standard bringing high-level integrity and credibility to the most important global goal of our time: climate security and sustainable development. The standard website gives public access to all documentation under the standard including methodologies, principles and requirements.  

The Gold Standard Impact Registry tracks the certification status of climate projects engaged in the Gold Standard certification process. It offers public access to see where products for Gold Standard projects, such as carbon credits, are issued, held, transferred, and retired, providing transparency and credibility for stakeholders.  

The Gold Standard Marketplace offers the chance to directly contribute to certified projects. Gold Standard-certified carbon credits fund climate protection projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and create sustainable development benefits for the communities that need it most.  

The SDG Impact Dashboard offers open access to discover the climate and sustainable development impacts of Gold Standard-certified project, in a clear and interactive manner. It enables better data discovery to inform the decisions of project supporters, investors, host country governments, and project developers, while increasing the accessibility of data in the carbon market overall. 

The Gold Standard digital SDG Impact Tool is a one stop solution for project developers, auditors, and reviews, to report, quantify, verify, and certify projects under Gold Standard for the Global Goals.  

The Carbon Market Regulations Tracker is developed to enhance the understanding and transparency of carbon market regulations, and support governments, project developers, investors, and other market participants in navigating the evolving regulatory landscape. The tracker serves as a central information hub, offering standardised summaries and direct links to relevant regulations concerning baseline-and-crediting market activities, within voluntary carbon markets and those under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.
