GOBI's structure
GOBI is a partnership of 19 scientific institutions, which provide the
scientific background to GOBI's work. To obtain advice from and enhance
coordination with other organisations, GOBI has established an Advisory
Board and a Science Board.
The GOBI Advisory Board consists of representatives from the Convention of
Biological Diversity (CBD), the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), the
Global Environment Facility (GEF), the International Maritime Organisation
(IMO), the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) of UNESCO, the
International Seabed Authority (ISA), the United Nations Development
Programme (UNDP), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), and, as
an observer, the Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea of the
United Nations Office of Legal Affairs (DOALOS).
The GOBI Science Board is composed of eight scientists who ensure the
fulfilment of GOBI's goal and objectives.
