Governance
WBA has a two-tiered governance model. The executive board sets out WBA's strategic objectives and jointly supervise the organisation's activities. The supervisory board oversees the strategic decisions and long-term ambition of WBA.
Supervisory board
The team with truly diverse experience and expertise across business, government and civil society from the developed and developing world helps further support WBA to be an agent for systems change. Now more than ever this change requires diversity of thinking and collaboration to benchmark for a better world in the next decade.
The role of the supervisory board is also critical to WBA’s governance structure which compliments the Donor Committee and independent Expert Review Committees for each benchmark. The Board meets quarterly.
