Governors of FISS

FISS has a board of Governors (the members of which are shown below) that oversees the activities of the association. Day to day management is provided by the Secretary-General, backed up by advice from an executive committee that meets or discusses matters in between the meetings of the Board of Governors. The Board of Governors normally meets once a year in conjunction with the International Research Seminar on 'Issues in Social Security'.
