Digital platform to support MSME climate action launched in  India

The SME Climate Hub is an initiative of the United Nations Race to Zero campaign, which helps MSMEs make a globally recognized climate commitment, and measure, report and reduce their emissions. The SME Climate Hub offers short, digestible modules as an introductory primer for MSME climate action, and a reporting tool to help them track progress on their climate commitment and communicate their action to key stakeholders. The SME Climate Hub partnered with CRB to launch a pilot project to create awareness and build capacity amongst Indian MSMEs across multiple sectors and states. The project included capacity building workshops, direct engagements with Indian MSMEs, and building case studies on industry-specific best practices. MSMEs in India are taking measures to be a part of the solution, and the SME Climate Hub serves as an important starting point for businesses looking to begin their climate journey.
