The Green Growth Knowledge Partnership (GGKP ) is a global community of policy, business, and finance professionals and organizations committed to collaboratively generating, managing and sharing knowledge on the transition to an inclusive green and circular economy. The GGKP is led by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI), Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) and World Bank.

GGKP provides its best practice knowledge brokerage services through its three core platforms: the Green Policy Platform , the Green Industry Platform and the Green Finance Platform , as well as its online interactive community space, the Green Forum . The GGKP also provides targeted knowledge management, communication and stakeholder engagement services for global projects funded under the Integral Environment Facility (GEF). The core focuses of GGKP as a knowledge brokerage are:

- Using world-class knowledge management, communication and application systems and tools to provide practitioners, policymakers and other experts with opportunities to access, share, and apply green and circular economy policy analysis, guidance, information and data.
- Identifying major knowledge gaps in green and circular economy theory and practice and addressing these gaps by promoting collaboration and coordinated research.
