NESAC Organizational Structure
The General Assembly, with all the General Members, is the apex decision making body. All the general members meet at least once in every year. The General Assembly elects an Executive Committee for one year term. The Executive Committee members are required to serve completely voluntarily, i.e., they cannot work as paid staff for NESAC. This is expected to serve as an incentive for many people to volunteer for democracy and development through NESAC, as well as to ensure transparency within the organization. For specific projects, short term payable consultants may be recruited through advertisements.
General Membership is awarded to the interested person with clear commitments to work on peace, democracy and development issues. The applicant must have clear commitment with its rules and regulations and must be actively involved in NESAC activities at least since one year and should show the possibilities how he can contribute to the organization and should state his expectations from NESAC and its members. Membership has to be renewed every year. Executive committee selects the members from the applicants.
Accountability System
Executive Body bears the main responsibility of the organization. This Body selects a director and other staff members as and when required. The director is responsible for all the daily activities of the organization and coordinates and executes research activities carried out by the organization and mobilizes volunteers as required. Its 0ffice is currently run by an administrative officer, accountant and office helper. These are the paid staff.
Transparency System
NESAC audits its financial report every year. The report then is presented in General Assembly and a public hearing among the members takes place. Beside this, NESAC presents its financial report of each and every program at the venue right after the closing.
