Governance Structure
Our Governance
In the spirit of co-creation and inclusivity, in its interim phase, OBF is governed by a non-hierarchal, multi-stakeholder Interim Steering Committee. The Committee provides inspiration, guidance, and mechanisms for collective leadership, supporting a diversity of initiatives to grow in scale and impact in a strategic direction. It is not a mechanism for coordination and control, as each member organisation, partnership and project have their own governance and accountability mechanisms, and the mandate for regional coordination will always be across multiple organisations. The Committee has equal representation from the public sector, private sector and civil society
Working with Collective Leadership Institute
The Collective Leadership Institute (CLI) plays a key role in supporting Our Blue Future’s multi-stakeholder approach and strengthening the capacities of its members. It contributes expertise in bringing leadership concepts to enlivening the alliance by encouraging a high-quality and inclusive stakeholder engagement and dialogue process within Our Blue Future.
This includes assessing and leveraging Our Blue Future strengths in the Collective Leadership Compass to navigate a complex transformative change process through the four phases of the Dialogic Change Model, below. This helps maintain a focus on building Our Blue Future as a diverse multi-stakeholder partnership that is inclusive, participatory and results-oriented.
