ICAT Impact

ICAT’s Monitoring, Evaluation, Learning and Uptake framework captures key impacts achieved across the spectrum of ICAT’s work. With a focus on real-time learning, these impacts are fed back into a virtuous evaluation cycle to ensure that ICAT’s offer continues to meet its own climate action transparency priorities, alongside those of its partners.
