IAAB Board of Advisors

The purpose of the Iranian Alliances Across Borders Board of Advisors (BoA) is to support the staff, to provide institutional memory, and to ensure continuity in regards to IAAB's mission. The Board does not play an active role in day-to-day operations of IAAB, but acts as a guiding entity. Board members must be nominated and every seat on the board is occupied by someone who has already served in a high leadership capacity within the organization. The BoA's declaration of principles is reflective of IAAB's values as an organization in fostering a community of young leaders. Read more: IAAB Board of Advisors
