Our Leadership
The Secretariat

The AIM Platform Secretariat is responsible for drafting the AIM Platform Standard and Guidance and supporting documentation for consideration by the Governing Committee as well as for managing the day-to-day work of the AIM Platform.

Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES)
The Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan climate policy think tank that works to secure a safe and stable climate by accelerating the global transition to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions and a thriving, just, and resilient economy. C2ES has a longstanding reputation as an objective and authoritative voice on climate policy and a respected convener of government policy makers, business executives, and other stakeholders.

Center for Green Market Activation (GMA)
The Center for Green Market Activation™ (GMA) is a US-based, globally focused nonprofit that works with climate-leading companies and non-profits to jump start new markets in green fuels and materials.
GMA was founded by Kim Carnahan. Kim is a former U.S. Chief Negotiator for Climate Change and U.S. Focal Point to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), where she became steeped in the development of national GHG inventories as well as multi-stakeholder consultation processes.

Gold Standard
Gold Standard designs, develops and implements climate and sustainable development finance solutions. A Swiss-based non-profit, their focus is on delivering integrity (mechanisms that work for their intended purpose, are transparent and used properly) and quality. They have extensive experience in carbon markets and sustainable finance more broadly, being highly influential within the spheres of the Paris Agreement and SBTi.
