DECISION-MAKING

CMI – Martti Ahtisaari Peace Foundation is a Finnish non-profit organisation, where the highest decision-making body is the Board of Directors. The Board ensures that the Foundation fulfils its purpose in its operations. The Board also supports and supervises the organisation and makes sure that the Foundation is managed appropriately and in accordance with applicable legislation and the Foundation’s by-laws. The Board is also responsible for ensuring that accounting and financial oversight of the Foundation are appropriately organised.

The Board is led by the Chair, Vice-Chair and four other members. The independent Board convenes approximately six times per year. Members do not get any financial compensation for their service. The Chair covers his travel costs himself.

CMI’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), appointed by the Board, is responsible for the overall leadership and day-to-day management of the Foundation, the execution of CMI’s mission and the implementation of CMI’s strategy. The Leadership Team (LT) and the Deputy CEO support the CEO in the management of the organisation and institutional decision-making.
