WELO operates under a structured governance framework designed to ensure transparency, accountability, and international representation. The organisation is guided by its Charter and overseen by an elected Governing Committee responsible for strategic direction, institutional oversight, and the development of the WELO framework.
Governance within WELO combines global coordination with national participation through recognised national representatives and specialised subcommittees. This structure supports the development, integrity, and international implementation of WELO activities.
