BCA’s Governance
Secretariat
The BCA Secretariat facilitates BCA operations and coordinates BCA work streams through the Working Groups, Task Force, Communities Advisory Panel and Forum. The Secretariat is facilitated by UNDP and UNEP FI.Taskforce
The BCA Task Force (TF) currently comprises 20 members who are primary reviewers of concepts developed by BCA Working Groups. TF is made up of institutions actively engaged in biodiversity credit related work. These include methodology developers, standard setters, academic and research institutions, along with representatives of the Communities Advisory Panel (CAP). TF is also the decision-making body and the main working organ of BCA. Membership is on an institutional basis and is voluntary, with no financial remuneration.Community Advisory Panel
Full and effective engagement with Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities at the frontline of the nature crisis should be central to any nature market strategy. CAP (Communities Advisory Panel) is a specialist panel which allows BCA to consult with and learn from Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities.Working Groups
BCA Working Groups are established to define and develop relevant concepts to assist the formulation of a transparent and trusted market in biodiversity credits. Members of working groups may include representatives from Forum, Task Force and CAP, as well as partner organizations when their expertise is required.Forum
The BCA Forum is a global, multi-disciplinary, advisory group, comprised of institutional members who share the vision and mission of the BCA. Forum members contribute to and benefit from work done by the BCA, meeting every six weeks via webinar. Forum membership is broad-based, comprising an expanding group of over 400 organizations. The full list of Forum members can be viewed below.BCA Task Force Members
