NNNGO has a
formidable Board of Trustees made up of
world acclaimed eminent personalities
reputed for outstanding contributions to
National and Global development. The Board
is the policy-formulating body of the
organisation. The policies of the board are
implemented by the National Executive
Council headed by an Executive Director who
also doubles as the Secretary to the Board.
The Board and the Executive Council consult
from time to time with the Advisory council
on issues affecting the civil society sector
in Nigeria.
Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees is responsible and
accountable to the members of NNNGO and the
wider community of civil society
organizations on everything that NNNGO does.
It ensures that its contribution to
promoting the interests of the civil society
sector is as efficient and effective as
possible. It agrees and monitors the
achievement of NNNGO's mission, vision,
strategy and plans. It takes decisions in
the best interests of NNNGO as a whole. It
works in partnership with the NNNGO
Executive Council, Advisory Council and the
entire Membership. The board as far as
practicable reflects the balance of society
in respect of age, gender and ethnicity.
Executive Council
The Executive Council comprises the
Executive Director, all State Focal Persons
and the Management committee. It also
includes the Chairs (or, in their absence,
Vice Chairs) of any service committees
reporting directly to the Board.
The Executive Council shares the same
objectives as the Board of Trustees and
operates according to the same principles.
It has delegated authorities to make
decisions that cannot reasonably be deferred
until a meeting of the full Trustee Board.
Advisory Council
The Advisory Council is responsible for
contributing to the development of a vibrant
civil society sector in Nigeria and
influencing decisions made by its
membership. It provides forums in which key
National issues of relevance to NNNGO and to
the civil society sector can be analysed and
debated, and which allow recommendations to
be made.
The Advisory Council is civil society led
and customer focused. It reflects the
diversity and experience of the third
sector. It includes and involves people from
other networks and organisations, and others
(individuals) with relevant skills and
experience. It operates in a way that
maximises involvement, efficiency and
effectiveness.
