The #GG21 CCN Climate Solutions Round reviews are complete and we are excited to welcome 70 impactful Climate Solutions Grantees into the round. You can find the GG21 Grant Review Process here.
As a reminder, there are three key reasons why the Climate Coordination Network (CCN) team is continuing to increase our use of impact metrics and measurement tools:
- To ensure that we can attract more matching funds for future climate rounds;
- To help validate impact claims and help grantees showcase real-world climate impact
- For grantees, CCN and the wider public to understand the impact of your projects which is crucial for making informed decisions, ensuring the effectiveness of our actions and creating a tangible difference in addressing climate change

GG21 Key Changes
In order to provide more funds to impactful climate projects, the CCN team is trying something new for GG21. Here are the key changes:
- Eligibility Criteria: Please read the updated GG21 Eligibility Criteria carefully. Note that applicants who participated in GG20 must have at least 2 milestones and updates in their GG20 KarmaGap profile.
- Round Limit: The Climate Solutions round will be limited to 70 grantees maximum as determined by a ranking of project review scores.
- No Appeal Process: Note that because of the new impact ranking and limit of 70 projects in the #GG21 climate round, there is no longer a Climate Solutions Round appeal process. Grantees who aren’t in the top 70 ranking are encouraged to apply again next round and we’ve included some suggestions below on how to improve future applications.
- Project Reviews: Reviewers will score projects based on their application, Karma GAP milestones and updates, impact metrics and other information. Learn more about the GG21 Grant Review Process.
