The Assembly of (member) Associates is the overall governance body of GMPA. A coordinating team elected among core Associates provides formal statutory responsibility for the Association and oversees coordination and communication. A Roster of Affiliates represents a wider group of specialists, academics, experts and others cooperating with the Association. An Advisory Council incorporates professional counterparts in partner international organizations to facilitate dialogue and cooperation Associates and Affiliates participate in research activities, advisory missions, consultancies, bidding on calls for proposals or for tender, etc. relevant to their areas of expertise. Associates/Affiliates are employed and deployed as needed on project-supported basis, in ‘made to order’ teams to meet each specific request or situation with appropriate compentencies. A secretariat will facilitate website, email, telephone and postal contacts as well as implement GMPA activities. |
