Organization

JRT Governance

The JRT is governed by an International Executive Committee (IEC) comprised of up to five representatives, selected from JRT chapters around the world.  The IEC is selected at the JRT annual meeting in Caux, Switzerland and serves for three years. IEC members should have attended at least one JRT annual or interim meeting and be active in their local chapter. 

The responsibilities of the IEC include:

• Coordinating annual and interim conferences;
• Preparing conference and annual reports;
• Preparing and updating of a global three-year plan;
• Liaising with Caux Initiatives for Business and Initiatives for Change;
• Ensuring that chapter guidelines are being met;
• Promoting the JRT internationally;
• Managing the JRT global website; and
• Serving as a resource for country chapters.

JRT Chapters

JRT Chapters provide an opportunity for individuals to further the purposes of the JRT within their local environment. 

Chapters operate autonomously, but should have the following minimum structure:

• An executive committee composed of at least three people who are committed to the mission and purposes of the JRT, one of whom should have attended a JRT annual or interim meeting;
• A commitment to meet at least four times per year;
• The production of an annual report, including income, expenses, and activities; and
• Participation, to the extent possible, in the JRT annual and interim meetings.
