Board of Directors
Through regular meetings, the Board also oversees the financial and risk management of the organization. All Board positions are voluntary, with members elected for 2-year terms, which are renewable for up to 8 years.
The ISANS CEO is also a member of the Board, as well as a staff-elected representative. The Board holds an Annual General Meeting (AGM) every June, where ISANS' financials and program activities are reviewed and presented in the ISANS Annual Report.
