HAC 30×30 Matchmaking Platform

Welcome to the HAC 30×30 Matchmaking Platform!

Our Matchmaking service aims to connect our member countries needs with technical and financial assistance to deliver 30×30.

How does it work?

The HAC 30×30 Matchmaking Platform is our main connection tool.  HAC for N&P country members are invited to login to the HAC 30×30 Matchmaking Platform, where they can submit one or several technical and financial assistance requests to implement 30×30. Assistance providers (financial institutions, NGOs, private sector, programs and initiatives, etc.) can upload available technical expertise and financial support related to 30×30.

HAC members can submit one or several requests for assistance. A template of the request form is available here. A complementary budget template is also available here to help structure financial assistance requests. In addition, assistance providers can make use of the offer template available here to share available technical expertise or financial support related to 30×30.

Each request is carefully considered by our team and matched with a relevant partner to help deliver the country’s goal.
The Matchmaking support includes one-on-one follow-up, a proactive search for a suitable assistance provider, and “deal” meetings.

How to access the HAC 30x30 Matchmaking Platform?

HAC member countries can request access through their national HAC focal point and receive login details to enter the platform. Once inside, they can submit one or several requests for technical or financial support related to implementing Target 3. Assistance providers can also use the platform to share available expertise, funding options, or capacity-building offers relevant to 30×30.

All submissions are reviewed by the HAC team, who help identify suitable partners and facilitate the connection process. The video below provides a step-by-step explanation of how to submit a request or offer through the platform and how the matching process works.
