Governance

The NHDS is led by a national Executive Committee and Advisory Committee with volunteer members from institutions across Canada. The committees set direction, organize projects and develop funding models for various initiatives. Regular members serve a two-year term while a new Chair is elected by the members yearly. A secretariat, run out of the Canadian Research Knowledge Network, works with the Executive and Advisory Committees to help implement the strategy. The technical, content and communications Working Groups also support the work of the committee.
