The Steering Group and Boards
The administrative and organisational structure will contribute to the highest possible standard of research. To support this, three advisory boards with different functions will support the leader team of the centre.
The KINDknow leader team consist of one person from each Work package (WP). Each WP will also have at least one more person in the core team to make sure that the leader team meets at key stages during the course of developing the centre and will be involved in strategic decisions. The leader team will meet regularly in order to share and build the centre.
