Organizational Structure

The Global Research Centre for Biosphere Reserve Advancement (C-BRA) builds on, and extends, the human and institutional resources of the previous Governance of Biodiversity (GoBi) project.

The research centre is run and supervised by the Association for Biosphere Reserve Research and Communication, a non-profit organization with national and international members. C-BRA furthermore draws on GoBi's network of strategic partnerships to promote research related to biosphere reserves on a global scale.
