Our Governance and Team

General Assembly

SRP seeks to ensure all stakeholders have an equal and transparent opportunity to influence decisions and outcomes on SRP’s policies and operations, and on the design and management of our normative tools.

The foundation for the SRP governance system is its members. The primary authority of members is exercised through the General Assembly, which functions as SRP’s highest decision-making body and meets annually to perform statutory functions and provide policy guidance. Voting rights and process are defined in the Articles of Association.

Between Annual General Assemblies, three functional entities carry out the operations of the organization: the SRP Board, the SRP Secretariat, and the Technical Committee.

SRP Board

The SRP Board is elected by the General Assembly and oversees management of the global organization on behalf of all members. It has a statutory responsibility for ‘general management and control’ of the organization. The Board is skills-based and comprises elected members representing key stakeholder constituencies. The Board is supported by two Board Committees.

The Board Committee on Governance and Risk (view Terms of Reference) is responsible for: periodic review of statutory and guiding documents notably the Articles of Association and Bylaws; review of legal status and agreements to meet governance requirements; assessing and tracking risk and governance-related issues with respect to SRP’s strategy; review of management, including risk management, structures, including day to day management structures; and advising on and reviewing national implementation structures.

The Board Committee on Finance and Business Development (view Terms of Reference) oversees and provides strategic input and guidance to the Secretariat and Board to support SRP’s finances, operations and business development.  Additionally, the FBDC provides the Secretariat with guidance to facilitate operationalization and review of the SRP 5-Year Strategic Plan 2020-2024 and Annual Action Plans, as well as ad hoc guidance on resource mobilization. Finally, FBDC is responsible for ensuring alignment on governance matters with the Governance and Risk Committee.
