How is the organisation run?
The Greenpeace organisation consists of Greenpeace International (Stichting Greenpeace Council) in Amsterdam and Greenpeace offices in 41 countries around the world. Each office is governed by a board, which appoints a representative called a trustee.
In each office, trustees meet once a year to agree on the long-term strategy of the organisation, to make necessary changes to governance structure, to set a ceiling on spending, and to elect the Board of four members and a chairperson.
The Board approves the annual budget of Greenpeace and its audited accounts. It also appoints and supervises the Executive Director who, together with directors and senior managers, and consulting widely with office staff, leads the organisation.
The Chair of Board in the UK is Sue Mayer, and the Executive Director is John Sauven.
