Organisational structure

The LEDS Global Partnership operates through an innovative distributed leadership model, with regional institutions managing African, Asian and Latin American regional platforms and officials from countries and international organizations providing technical support on analysis and tools, planning, finance, and sectors (e.g., agriculture, energy, transport, and waste). A steering committee provides guidance and sets strategic direction for LEDS GP, and a global secretariat coordinates LEDS GP implementation, knowledge management, and outreach.
