Governance Structure
Governance Structure / Struktura e Qeverisjes
Roma Versitas Albania operates under a clear governance structure designed to ensure transparency, accountability, and effective decision-making. The organization’s structure is composed of three main bodies, each with distinct roles and responsibilities.
Roma Versitas Albania is structured into three main bodies: the General Assembly (GA), the Advisory Board (AB), and the Administration.
General Assembly (GA)
The General Assembly is the highest governing body of the organization, composed of all of its members. The GA serves several key functions, including:
- Electing the members of the Advisory Board.
- Appointing the Executive Director.
- Approving the organization’s strategy, annual plan, and budget, among other key decisions.
Advisory Board (AB)
The Advisory Board is composed of five members, elected by the General Assembly. It serves as the decision-making body between General Assembly meetings, exercising all decision-making powers, except for those specifically reserved to the GA by law or statute. The current Advisory Board includes three Roma members, and at the next General Assembly, the remaining members will be selected.
Administration
The Administration is led by the Executive Director, with the support of the Finance Officer and the Secretary-General. The Administration is responsible for the day-to-day management of the organization and its programs.
Executive Director
- Overseeing all activities of the organization.
- Representing the organization in legal and external matters.
- Coordinating actions between members and external consulting firms, as necessary.
- Hiring administrative personnel, with the approval of the Advisory Board.
- Supervising the Advisory Board meetings and executing decisions.
Finance Officer

Together, these bodies ensure that Roma Versitas Albania fulfills its mission effectively while maintaining the highest standards of governance and integrity.
