Board

The board consists of two organs: the Board of Directors and the Board of Advisors.

The Board of Directors consists of various members, who usually stay in their position for various years, responsible for the (financial) stability of the foundation itself and for the appointment of the Secretary-General. Furthermore, when the Executive Staff makes radical changes to the policy plan, the Board of Directors is there to approve these changes.

The Board of Advisors consists of various previous Executive Staff members. The aim of the Board of Advisors is to focus on the longterm goals of the IMUNA Foundation, such as improving the sustainability of the IMUNA conference. The Board of Advisors is only allowed to give advice, the Executive Staff alone is responsible for the current policy of the IMUNA Foundation.

Board of Directors*

Ms M. Kuipers

Head of the Board of Directors

My name is Marina Kuipers and I hold the position of Chairman of the Board of Directors. Together with my colleague Robin van Kempen, I am responsible for the appointment of the Secretary-General. In addition, I maintain close contact with the Secretary-General, Deputy Secretaries-General and the Financial Manager throughout the year and oversee the process of establishing IMUNA. This year I am very proud of the Executive Staff as well and I am confident that IMUNA will become memorable for all participants. During the conference, I am present to answer questions from MUN directors, delegates and participate in the evaluation. I look forward to the conference with great enthusiasm!

Mr R. van Kempen

Member of the Board of Directors

My name is Robin van Kempen, and I am the proud newly-appointed Member of the Board of Directors. As such I will be assisting my colleague, and Chairman of the Board of Directors, Marina Kuipers. To ensure that everything runs smoothly, I will be in close contact with the Board of Directors. This year the board has already been established, but in the upcoming years, I will be weighing in on the appointment of the Secretary-General as well. During IMUNA, I will be present to help out wherever I can, and to answer any questions that may occur from directors and delegates. This special edition of IMUNA will undoubtedly be one for the books, and I for one, am looking forward to experiencing my first IMUNA as a Member of the Board of Directors.

*: The Secretary-General and Financial manager are part of the Board of Directors as well. More information about the people in those functions can be found on the Executive Staff page.
