Open Contracting Partnership at London Climate Action Week 2026

We asked a wide range of experts a straightforward question: does a digital platform exist that tracks climate finance all the way from pledge to project to impact? Every single one said no.

That gap is what Open Contracting Partnership (OCP) is bringing to London Climate Action Week this year. Governments are making serious commitments on climate finance. Billions are being pledged. But once that money leaves a donor, it largely disappears, no system tracks what gets procured, what gets built, or whether it is delivered. Two-thirds of climate-related funding is either unreported or unrelated to its stated purpose. Fewer than 20 countries even have climate budget tagging systems.

We’ve spent the past year figuring out what it would take to fix that. Our new research, From Pledges to Projects to Procurement, lays out the blueprint for a national digital platform that connects the full chain: from international pledge to government budget to contract to community. It’s based on interviews with over 16 major stakeholder groups from government, multilateral institutions, civil society and private investors, and draws on what we learned running the coordination office for DREAM, Ukraine’s first-of-its-kind public investment management system.

If you’re working on country platforms, climate finance tracking, or digital public infrastructure, find us this week. We want to hear what you’re building and share what we’ve learned.
