Role Description

The Beyond Oil and Gas Alliance (BOGA) is a first-mover alliance of governments and stakeholders that are working toward a global, managed, and just phase-out of oil and gas production. BOGA was launched at COP 26 in Glasgow as the first government-led alliance committed to phasing out oil and gas production. Its core members have committed to ending new licensing rounds for oil and gas and to Paris-aligned end dates for production.

Since its launch, BOGA has played a central role in raising global ambition on the phase-out of oil and gas, and establishing partnerships and platforms that support governments in taking their first steps toward a just transition. Looking ahead, the Alliance will continue translating the global commitment to transitioning away from fossil fuels into action, coordinating the most ambitious governments and developing credible pathways and finance for just transitions.
