moja global is a truly global, neutral platform owned by its users

Users own and control moja global. More info on governance can be found here.

All users have the right to take a seat on the board. The strategy board decides on strategy and budget. Currently the board is comprised of a Kenyan national, an American national, a Polish national, a Canadian national and a Ghanaian representative of the UNFCCC. The board supervises 2 co-directors, one is Belgian and one is Australian. The chair of the technical steering committee is a Canadian national.

At the time FLINT started only two countries in the world had a spatially explicit system using integrating software to estimate land-sector GHG fluxes. Those were Canada and Australia. The strong points of each of these systems were taken on in the FLINT design process. As a result FLINT has a number of key ingredients comparable to the software being used in those two countries.

(Misconception: moja global is Australian/Canadian dominated)
