About ENAR

Governance

ENAR’s member organisations are represented through national coordinations in each of the EU member states. ENAR counts 28 national coordinations and one European-level coordination. The national coordinations are a great asset for ENAR. Being the hub of a national network of NGOs in each country, they can provide the grassroots perspective to ENAR’s work.

Each national coordination regularly elects one board member and one substitute, which then constitute the link between the national members and the secretariat in Brussels. One of the representatives of each national coordination should belong to an ethnic minority.

ENAR’s Management Board is responsible for directing the activities of ENAR. It focuses in particular on monitoring the implementation of the work programme and the tasks implied in the mandate of the organisation.

ENAR’s Bureau is composed of seven members elected by the Board, which have the task of monitoring the day-to-day managerial aspects of the network.

ENAR’s General Assembly is the sovereign body of the organisation. It is responsible for managing the organisation in areas such as the definition of ENAR’s annual work programme and the approval of the budget. It is composed of two elected representatives (Board member and substitute) from each national coordination and meets once a year.

The ENAR secretariat ensures the day-to-day work of the network and is the hub of all its activities at European level.

 

 
 
In addition, an Advisory Council of Eminent Persons was established during ENAR's Board meeting of 28-29 September 2007. It does not constitute a body of the organisation but aims to play a general ambassadorial role for ENAR. Bashy Quraishy is currently Chair of the Advisory Council.
