A shared framework for corporate climate accountability.
The Climate Contribution Framework (CCF) was established to address a growing accountability gap: while companies increasingly disclose their emissions and transition plans, their overall contribution to global net zero remains fragmented, difficult to compare, and undervalued.
Co-initiated by Sweep and the
Mirova Research Center.
Together, Sweep and Mirova organizations combine sustainable financial research, data insights, and operational expertise to build the market infrastructure that was missing: a robust, transparent, and scalable framework that goes beyond methodology to enable meaningful, comparable climate contribution across companies and sectors.
Sweep is the enterprise sustainability intelligence platform trusted by L'Oréal, Orange, Crocs, and hundreds of leading global companies to meet CSRD, ESRS, and international ESG reporting requirements. The platform transforms compliance obligations into strategic business intelligence. Co-founded by Rachel Delacour, Yannick Chaze, and Raphael Gueller, Sweep is B Corp certified and recognized by Verdantix and IDC as a leader in sustainability data management.
The Mirova Research Center is an excellence research center dedicated to enhancing methods and tools for sustainable finance, established in September 2024. Its goal is to support academic research through funding and promoting innovative, high-impact topics for the industry and society, creating a space for exchange between the academic world and the financial sector. MRC focuses on three areas: impact indicators for a just transition, investors' contribution to the SDGs, and AI & technology innovation for sustainable finance.
