The current membership of <strong>Malteser</strong> <strong>International</strong><br />
consists of 26 National Associations and Priories of the<br />
Order of Malta, who actively support the organization<br />
within their jurisdictions. Currently, both regional<br />
branches in Europe and the Americas serve as associate<br />
members. Their representatives, together with the<br />
Board of Directors, the Grand Hospitaller of the Order<br />
of Malta, the Chaplain, the Secretary General and the<br />
Vice-Secretary General form the General Assembly: the<br />
organization’s highest decision-making body. The General<br />
Assembly is responsible for electing and discharging<br />
the Board of Directors, accepting the annual accounts,<br />
ordering financial audits as well as passing amendments<br />
to the by-laws. The President convokes the General<br />
Assembly once a year. The Board of Directors, which is<br />
elected for a four-year term, consists of the President,<br />
the Vice-President, the Treasurer, and up to two additional<br />
elected members, as well as the representatives<br />
from the regional branches in Europe and the Americas,<br />
and from the Asia-Pacific region. The Board of Directors<br />
works on a purely voluntary basis and is responsible for<br />
approving the financial plans and the annual budget, as<br />
well as commissioning the financial auditing of the annual<br />
accounts. The Board of Directors bears the overall<br />
responsibility for the organization’s operative tasks. The<br />
salaried Secretary General manages the organization’s<br />
General Secretariat. He is responsible for the operational<br />
management activities in line with the financial plan<br />
and the annual budget.<br />
