Board Matters

Board Matters was created at the request of the IPPF Trustees. Its purpose is to provide members and staff better insight into the governance of the Federation.

The Board sees transparency and inclusion as integral to good governance. As such, they will provide open access to IPPF Board papers. You can read the key documents here.

The Board also encourages dialogue with you on governance matters. If you have questions for the Board, you can write to them on their dedicated email account: bot@ippf.org

We are rolling out our new Coming Together Series with the first edition dedicated to getting to know IPPF’s Board Chair Kate Gilmore.

Come Together – Get to know your board!

Emphasizing Transparency and Engagement: Introducing ‘Let’s Come Together’ Q&A Series

Alvaro Bermejo

At IPPF, transparency, accountability, and effective communication stand as pillars of our approach. As vital as these principles are in our external interactions with stakeholders, partners, and the communities we serve, they are equally significant within our internal operations. I firmly believe that the Board and I must maintain visibility and approachability in all our engagements and endeavors with member associations. This not only showcases our dedication but also nurtures a sense of unity, fostering meaningful interactions.

With great pleasure, I introduce the ‘Let’s Come Together’ Q&A series, featuring our Board of Trustees. This initiative embodies our commitment to open dialogue and offers each trustee an authentic platform to share their professional journey, aspirations for their tenure, global perspectives on pertinent issues, and insights into our Federation’s direction. Simultaneously, this series invites readers to engage with the trustees, discussing member association related insights, concerns, and innovative ideas.

As we embark on this journey together, we are poised to achieve the ambitions outlined in our Strategy 2028. I trust you’ll find these interviews enlightening and discover a deeper connection with the dedicated individuals who make up our Board of Trustees.
