Management of the Foundation

Her Majesty the Queen, Ashi Dorji Wangmo Wangchuck, is the president of the Foundation. The administration and direction is overseen by a Board of Trustees appointed from a wide section of society. The Board meets twice a year to review ongoing activities and approve new ones.

The day-to-day management of the Foundation and the execution of projects and related activities are carried out by the Secretariat. The Secretariat is assisted by a Commitee of Member Volunteers who help in the implementation of programs and provide technical and advisory services. The Committee meets every two weeks.

Transparency and Accountability

The Foundation maintains its accounts in accordance with accepted financial norms and is audited annually by the Royal Audit Authority of Bhutan. An audited financial report and an annual progress report are published every year and is available for all interested individuals and organizations.

Târâyana Foundation operates on the financial support of individuals and organizations. A few of the programs are project-based and supported through bilateral and international organizations.
