BORDA Publications
Sharing knowledge is central to our practice
Core principles, key elements, lessons learned, guidelines made practical, technical information laid out—these are available below in our collection of downloadable publications. We’ve also included communication materials and—in the interest of transparency—our most recent annual reports.
If you would like to request any of our technical documents that are not available on this site, please email Alex Wolf at .
