Board of Governance
The Governance Board of Athena comprises various external experts, including experienced academics, legal and industry representatives. The Board monitors organizational performance in terms of corporate governance, academic independence, ethics, and integrity. It also provides strategic, academic, and developmental advice, as well as direction and assistance to the Executive and Academic Councils’ agendas, which are the two higher-level councils responsible for overall executive and academic operations of the organization. The Governance Board appoints independent auditors to carry out financial and academic audits. These independent bodies report directly to the Board, the audit reports are discussed in the Board Meetings and disseminated for advice and action to the Executive and Academic Councils.
