The BFDK’S executive committee is elected every two years by the assembly of delegates and represents the association externally. Their work is voluntary and they meet regularly to discuss issues relevant to the association and its members.
The BFDK’s voluntary executive committee works in partnership with the full-time management team and sees itself as a driving force and steering body for the entire organisation. Since 2021, it has consisted of five members with equal rights. They are jointly responsible for overarching strategic goals and bear the legal responsibility for the association.
In a rotating system, two executive committee members take the role of “representing committee members”. In this period they function as a link to the management’s operational work and take on a more public role. Furthermore, all executive committee members are responsible for specific thematic areas, which they work on in sub-committees and working groups, feeding ideas, information and knowledge back into the association and public discourse on cultural policy.
