Goals / Remit
CDP is a global non-profit that runs the world’s environmental disclosure system for companies, cities, states and regions. Founded in 2000 and working with more than 680 financial institutions with over $130 trillion in assets, CDP pioneered using capital markets and corporate procurement to motivate companies to disclose their environmental impacts, and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, safeguard water resources and protect forests. Nearly 20,000 organizations around the world disclosed data through CDP in 2022, including more than 18,700 companies worth half of global market capitalization, and over 1,100 cities, states and regions. Fully TCFD aligned, CDP holds the largest environmental database in the world, and CDP scores are widely used to drive investment and procurement decisions towards a zero carbon, sustainable and resilient economy.

Communication activities
The annual CDP Europe Awards serves as a cornerstone, uniting corporate, investor, and public sector leaders to engage in critical discussions and spur the needed actions to meet the EU's climate and environmental objectives. Held annually in a European capital, this paramount event enables vital networking and debates amongst Europe's preeminent private sector actors, policymakers, and climate and environmental experts, aspiring to stimulate key decision-makers across Europe to elevate their ambitions and drive the transition to a low-carbon, resource-secure economy. During the event, accolades are extended to the winners of CDP's annual scoring of environmental performance, spotlighting the CDP A List for European corporates and the Cities, States and Regions (see more about CDP Europe awards here: https://www.cdp.net/en/events/cdp-europe-awards/2023/). In addition to our annual awards, CDP is committed to knowledge sharing and policy development through the dissemination of a monthly policy newsletter to our stakeholders and the frequent formulation of policy briefs/reports, deriving from our profound data insights and policy analysis activities. Furthermore, CDP actively engages in meetings and encounters with policymakers and NGO representatives, ensuring our initiatives on climate and environmental topics are distinctly positioned and resonate within the policy development discourse.

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
