Governance and corporate structure

The Centre’s work is guided by a 21-member international Board of Governors.

The IDRC Act stipulates that a majority of members, including the chair and vice-chair, must be Canadian. By tradition, 10 governors come from other countries: eight from developing and two from donor countries.

The chair of IDRC’s Board of Governors reports to the Parliament of Canada through the Minister of Foreign Affairs. As chief executive officer and a member of the board, the president manages and directs the work and staff of the Centre with the support of the Senior Management Committee
