GOVERNANCE AND STAFF

The Trudeau Foundation is governed by a distinguished, independent and pan-Canadian Board of Directors, which meets twice annually. Board Members serve for renewable terms of two years.

Trudeau Foundation Members, a remarkable group of Canadians from many walks of life, provide general oversight and invaluable advice to the board and staff of the Foundation. They meet once a year at an Annual General Meeting in November where they appoint the Foundation’s auditors and select new Board Members when required.

The staff of the Foundation is drawn from the university, business, professional, and voluntary sectors. Foundation staff propose strategic directions to the Board, administer the day-to-day operations of the Foundation, serve program beneficiaries, work to build up the Trudeau Foundation community, and promote the work of the Foundation within the academic community and the wider public.
