Transparency
Who decides, how,
and who checks.
A lean structure, clear roles and public accountability. Governance here is not a decorative org chart — it is the mechanism that keeps the mission alive beyond the people.
The structure
Executive direction
Day-to-day management: content production, shop operation, partnerships and team. Reports to the board and renders accounts in the annual reports.
Advisory board
Specialists in education, health and air quality — being formed. Guides strategy, validates priorities and oversees resource allocation.
Scientific & pedagogical review
No content is published without double validation: the scientific check for data truth; the pedagogical check for age fit. It applies to everything — from books to posts.
Decision principles
- Mission over revenue — in a conflict between earning and keeping the core free, free wins. It is written, not implied
- Declared conflicts of interest — board and direction declare ties; whoever has a stake in an agenda does not vote on it
- Recorded decisions — board deliberations generate minutes, and minutes of public interest will be published
- Open door — anyone can question accounts and decisions through the contact channel; recurring questions become a public FAQ
Public documents
As formalization advances, this page will gather the official documents:
- The institute’s bylaws — being drafted
- The board’s named composition — published as soon as formation concludes
- Conflict-of-interest policy — being drafted
- Deliberation minutes — from the board’s first formal meeting
“Good governance is boring: predictable, documented, no surprises. We save the creativity for the stories.”
