Greenpeace executive director Gerd Leipold, an activist and advisor
from Germany, leads the organisation. Australian journalist and author
Anne Summers is the current chair of the Greenpeace International board.
Each regional/national office has its own board of directors and is structured around the needs and laws of its region/country. These offices remain part of the international organisation of Greenpeace, while maintaining their own campaign priorities and unique identity.
Once a year, representatives from each board meet to decide on the organisation's long-term strategy, determine Greenpeace International's budget and elect its board.
In June 2006, Greenpeace launched the International Non Governmental Organisations Accountability Charter with Oxfam and Amnesty International. The charter outlines our continuing commitment to transparency, accountability and good governance.
Greenpeace has more than 130,000 financial supporters in Australia and 2.8 million members around the world.
In order to remain independent, Greenpeace does not solicit donations from corporations or governments. We rely on individual donors to fund our environmental campaigns.
