Documents and registers
HFA rests on a set of written instruments. They are listed below with a short account of what each one settles, and with its present status. A document appears here as adopted only once the Steering Committee has adopted it, and a superseded version is replaced rather than left alongside its predecessor.
| Instrument | Status |
|---|---|
| Charter Establishes HFA, states its purpose and commitments, and defines membership and the conditions of participation | Under review |
| Governance Framework Sets out, for each class of decision, who decides, who advises, who is consulted, and who executes | Under review |
| Steering Committee terms of reference Composition, seats, the conduct of meetings, and how officers are selected | Under review |
| Scientific and Technical Advisory Group terms of reference Scientific independence, the recording of dissenting views, and the ethical screening of use cases | Under review |
| Working groups and use case teams terms of reference How technical work is constituted, and how a group is opened and closed | Under review |
| Statement of Participation What a joining institution accepts, and what it does not | Under review |
| Strategic work plan Components, priorities and sequencing, revised as circumstances change | Under review |
Registers and reports
The register of declared interests, the annual performance report, and the independent evaluation of HFA's work will be published here as each falls due. The annual report states what proportion of HFA's funding is restricted, and to what.
Institutions reviewing HFA that require the current drafts before publication are invited to write to info@hfaglobal.org.
