Description
The Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate and Energy (GCoM) is an international initiative for climate action at city and municipal level. The GCoM datasets present a comprehensive collection of action plans and monitoring reports that have been directly uploaded by local authorities to the MyCovenant platform. It includes cities from the European Union, EFTA countries and the UK, Western Balkans, Eastern and Southern EU neighboring countries, and the rest of the world. These datasets provide a succinct summary of a sample of local efforts being made worldwide by GCoM signatories towards climate change mitigation, adaptation, and energy access. For their publication, the JRC develops a reproducible quality-harnessing process, ensuring their (re)usability and interoperability with other compatible data sources, having a high potential impact on research and policy-making.

Identification and description of the signatories. It includes the key IDs: organisation_id which allows relating dataset df1 with datasets df2 and df3, and gcom_id which allows identifying a city in the GCoM eco-system. It also includes a summary of all the key_IDs that are necessary to navigate through the files: df1 (signatory organisations), df2 (action plans) and df3 (monitoring reports).
