The LoCAL Board and Forum

The LoCAL Board is composed of representatives from LoCAL participating countries. These typically are senior officials involved with or working in local government and/or climate change. Alternate members may also be nominated, including officials from permanent missions to the UN. The Director of Local Development Finance of UNCDF chairs the Board.

The Board’s primary functions include the following:
  • Outline the overall LoCAL strategy
  • Approve the LoCAL annual report
  • Approve the annual workplan and budget of the LoCAL global programme
  • Ensure that LoCAL participating countries apply the appropriate climate change mainstreaming approaches, public financial management standards and assessment, verification and audit procedures in accordance with LoCAL methodology, programme standards and UNCDF fiduciary controls 
  • Guarantee the integrity and quality of the LoCAL programme
  • Lobby and advocate for LoCAL as a means to channel climate finance to the local level in least developed countries

The Board meets twice a year, in person or virtually.
