General Board

The General Body of Women Aid & Youth Development Organization (WAYDO) serves as the highest policy-making and governing forum within the organization. It is comprised of 35 dedicated young women members, each of whom holds voting power to democratically elect and select the key leadership and governance bodies of the organization.

These empowered members actively participate in shaping the strategic direction of WAYDO by voting to form the following bodies:

• Executive Panel
  
  

• Advisory Board
  
  

• Management Board
  
  

• And other standing or special committees as required
  
  

The General Body reflects WAYDO’s core values of inclusiveness, youth leadership, gender equality, and participatory governance. All members are committed to the organization's mission of empowering women and youth, particularly in marginalized and underserved communities.

The decisions made by the General Body are binding and play a crucial role in ensuring that the organization operates with accountability, transparency, and democratic legitimacy. The structure reinforces WAYDO’s commitment to youth-led development and the meaningful inclusion of women in leadership and institutional governance.

By empowering young women with the authority to elect leadership and shape policy, the General Body remains a cornerstone of WAYDO’s vision for a just, inclusive, and resilient society.
