How We Are Governed

Membership & General Assembly

Membership of the ISI is open to individuals who have served with distinction the democratic emancipation and education of the South African people, or who have excelled in the fields of politics, public policy and economic development, or who, by their personality, guarantee that they will act fully in line with the ISI’s objectives.

​

The collective membership will, when in sitting during the Annual General Meetings and/or Special Meetings of the membership, comprise the General Assembly.

​

The Board

The Board is elected by the General Assembly to oversee the Institute. It manages the affairs of the Institute in accordance with the resolutions of the members as taken from time to time at general meetings of the Institute. The Board is responsible for making and acting on such decisions that are essential to achieve the objectives of the Institute.

Contemporary Boardroom

The Advisory Council

The Advisory Council, which is comprised of eminent persons in society, advises and supports the Board on important matters affecting the ISI.

​

It also mediates when disputes arise within the Board.
