Governance

The governance structure comprises the Steering Group and the Core Development Group. Each partner organisation selects representation for each group. The relationship between the groups is based on supportive, two way communication and consultation.

The Role of the Steering Group is to provide guidance, strategic direction and communication back to the partner organisations and to agree on a model for the future funding and governance of LIIPS. The Core Development Group is an operational group charged with continuing to develop LIIPS and provide two way communication to the partner organisations. The original governance document is here.

The Steering Group met for the final time in September 2017 and made the decision to close LIIPS at the end of the year. Although funding was still offered by some of the LIIPS partners, the amounts available were not sufficient to maintain LIIPS in a sustainable way that was effective in achieving its objectives. LIIPS leaves a legacy building on its many successes.
