Strategic stewardship, institutional integrity and accountability to the General Assembly.
The Board of Directors provides strategic governance and oversight of Mikoko Development Foundation within the authority of the General Assembly. It protects mission, reviews institutional direction and sustainability, oversees material risks and holds executive leadership accountable without taking over day-to-day management.
