The Geneva Global Hub for Education in Emergencies Steering Group is the independent governance and oversight body of the Hub. The Steering Group is made up of the initial co-signatories of the GRF-pledge and founding members, and guides the overall strategic work of the Geneva Global Hub for Education in Emergencies on behalf of the broader membership.
The Technical Working Group provides technical expertise, acts as a sounding board and takes on leadership for carrying out specific activities as per the work plan. The Working Group is composed of the initial co-signatories as well as Canada and World Vision International, and is coordinated by the EiE Hub Coordinator.
