Governance Structure

The Alliance operates through authority granted by the General Assembly, Chair-led direction, Vice Chair supervision, and standing execution by the Secretariat.

Governance authority begins with the General Assembly. The Chair leads direction and representation, the Vice Chair provides supervision and coordination, and the Secretariat carries out standing execution.
