CEEweb is regulated by the Articles of Association
The Articles
of Association define how the network should operate:
the mission, aims and tasks of the network, the principles
of work, structure of organisation, rights and obligations
of members and budgetary provisions.
We work for the benefit of our members
CEEweb is open to individuals and NGOs from the Central and
East European region or from any other country actively working
in this region. All members are endorsed by the Annual Meeting
of CEEweb with simple majority. Read about the current
members of CEEweb and how

We work for the benefit of society
CEEweb is a public benefit organization working for the public
good. As a public benefit organization we have well-defined
strict legal obligations to fulfill, among them the yearly
publication of our financial and narrative reports.
Working Groups are the implementing, expert arms of the Network.
These mission-oriented task forces are formed following the
recommendations of member organizations, are led by an elected
Chair and receive financial and administrative support from
the Policy Office for implementing their work programme. Read
how the Working Groups
of CEEweb are established and operate >>
The main aims and objectives in the various thematic fields
are outlined and translated into concrete activities and actions
in the annual work programmes of CEEweb. The Annual Meeting
is the forum where representatives of the CEEweb member organisations
discuss and endorse the document. It is then implemented under
the supervision of the General Secretary and with the support
of the Policy Office by the Working Groups and members organisations.
The Board is the decision-making body in between the Annual
Meetings. The Board consists of the President, Vice-president
and one regular member elected by the Annual Meeting. It has
meetings together with the Advisory Committee. Read
more about the Board and its current members >>
The Advisory Committee
The Advisory Committee consists of three members elected
by the Annual Meeting, as well as of the Chairs of the Working
Groups elected by the WG members themselves. The Advisory
Committee has meetings together with the Board, and formulates
recommendations before all Board decisions. Read
more about the Advisory Committee and its current members >>
The General Secretary
Among the responsibilities of the General Secretary is the
execution of the decisions of the Board, keeping regular contacts
with international organisations and donors, making and implementing
decisions in regard to economic and financial issues. The
General Secretary ensures the public accessibility of the
information on CEEweb operation and on how its services can
be obtained. The general secretary of CEEweb is currently
Veronika Kiss.
The Supervisory Committee
The CEEweb has a Supervisory Committee of three individuals
who monitor the operation and management of the organization.
The meetings are called by the Chair and any member of the
organisations can request the chair to convene the meeting
in writing indicating the reason and the purpose. The members
of the Supervisory Committee are currently Urszula Biereznoj,
Jaromir Síbl and Benedek R. Sallai.
Staff and offices
Though CEEweb is originally registered in Miskolc and its
first office was established there, due to the increasing
activities in the international policy field it became imperative
that CEEweb moves closer to higher decision making institutions
in Budapest. Thus in autumn 2003 the Policy Office was established
in Budapest, where currently eight colleagues
work: the General Secretary, the network coordinator, the
programme coordinators, the communications officer and the
financial officer. After the headquarters
officially moved to Budapest in 2006, the office in Miskolc
continues to operate as a branch office.
