ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION

This is how we are structured

The General Assembly is the highest authority of the organization. The General Assembly elects the board, which oversees overall management and ensures a sound organization in close collaboration and consultation with the executive management and key functions in the secretariat. The board consists of five members selected based on competencies and diversity.

​

The responsibility for daily administration and leadership is carried out by the executive management in close coordination with the board, partners, and the steering committee for the South American Forest Conservation Alliance (SAFCA). The director also represents the organization to decision-makers and the public.

 

The Executive Director and the Director of Finance and Programs constitute the executive management, supported in their daily work by professional volunteers and paid staff.

 

In addition, a number of volunteer resource persons assist with specialized advice, capacity building for partners, and quality assurance of project applications on an ad hoc basis.

​

The secretariat is organized around three teams: Finance, Programs, and Communication:

​

  • The Finance team is responsible for budget and accounting.

  • The Programs team is responsible for the design, development, and management of collaborative projects with partners in South America.

  • The Communication team is responsible for member communication and campaigns.
