Guiding and supporting KBA identification
The KBA Standards and Appeals Committee (SAC) is vital to ensuring KBA identification and delineation are consistent with the KBA Standard. This independent committee ensures that KBA identification is objective, transparent, and science‐based and that the original intent of "A Global Standard for the Identification of Key Biodiversity Areas" is adhered to.
The KBA SAC reports directly to the chairs of the IUCN Species Survival Commission and the World Commission on Protected Areas, ensuring its independence and credibility.
