Ensuring Good Governance

Since its inception, Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah has been involved in all aspects of JRF’s development. As the Chairperson of the Board of Trustees, Her Majesty chairs Board meetings and provides visionary leadership to ensure the existence of long-term, impact-oriented programs.
The Foundation’s Board of Trustees consists of individuals from the public, private and non-profit sectors who provide valuable leadership and expertise while working in close coordination with the Director General and staff to ensure the strategic development of JRF. The Board oversees and monitors the implementation of all JRF projects, as well as refines administrative and financial systems and procedures. One of the Board’s major responsibilities is to ensure that the Foundation operates with fiscally sound and ethically accepted accounting and management practices, thus ensuring the Foundation’s transparency and accountability at all times.
