Why a public directory
When GOB expands across countries, external organizations need a simple way to determine whether a person is currently authorized to hold a country coordination role.

The directory is designed to help organizations and external institutions verify the public status of country-level coordination roles.

Country Coordination Directory
Public directory structure for formally appointed GOB country coordinators and their national scope, appointment status and network responsibilities.
What may be published
A public record may include the coordinator's name, official photograph, country, role, appointment status, concise mandate and a contact route controlled by the project.
What is not implied
Directory inclusion does not mean the coordinator is an ambassador, diplomatic agent, governmental representative or authorized to make commitments outside the published role.
Changes
If a coordinator changes, the public record should be updated promptly so outdated names do not continue to appear as active authority.
Organization contacts
Member organizations remain independently governed. A coordinator can facilitate communication but does not replace the legal representative or management of a member organization.
Formal appointment
Name, country, role and status
No diplomatic or governmental status
Operational depth
This section explains how the public framework is expected to work in practice and how GOB protects clarity as the project grows.
Opening a structure
A country or regional structure should begin with a real coordination purpose. GOB should be able to identify participating organizations, a communication route and responsible leadership before presenting the structure as active. This prevents empty pages from being mistaken for established national operations.
Communication chain
The layered model is intended to reduce confusion. Member organizations keep their own leadership, Country Coordinators handle national coordination, Continental Presidents oversee continental development, and the Director General connects the regional system to the wider operational structure.
Public directory discipline
Leadership and member directories should be based on current records. A public listing should not be created from an application alone, and a person should not remain displayed as active after the relevant appointment has ended. Publication must follow the applicable consent and representation rules.
Quality before geographic scale
The project should assess a network by communication reliability, member participation, programme usefulness and responsible cooperation. A smaller active country network can be more valuable than a larger list of inactive structures that cannot respond to organizations or external institutions.
