GOVERNING BOARD
The implementation of these guidelines and decisions by the Executive Secretariat is controlled and monitored by the Governing Board (GB), chaired by the Chairman of CORAF/WECARD. To this end, its thirteen members, from the NARS —representatives of national research and training institutes, professional agricultural organizations, the private sector, non-governmental organizations — the Regional Economic Communities and development partners (observers) recommend a candidate to the GA for the post of executive Director, supervise the activities of the Executive Secretariat, examine and approve the annual programmes and budgets. It is also part of their mandate to monitor the decisions of the GA, act on behalf of the GA on all matters requiring immediate attention, recommend for approval and ratification by the General Assembly, the programmes, budgets, financial reports, audit reports, and new membership.
