ICMM is governed by the Council, comprising of the CEOs from all member companies, and includes two CEO representatives from ICMM`s association members. The Council meets twice a year to set the strategic direction for ICMM and formulate policy.

The Council is supported by the Principal Liaisons Committee, which meets three times a year and is the primary vehicle through which members engage with each other and the ICMM Secretariat. The committee is made up of nominated representatives from all member companies.

The Principal Liaisons Committee is responsible for the effective implementation of the ICMM work programs and budget. It is supported by a number of specialist program committees through which members actively participate in ICMM projects and the Associations Co-ordination Group.

The Associations Co-ordination Group is the vehicle for associations to discuss common strategic issues and provide input to the Council and Principal Liaisons Committee . It also elects two representatives (the group chair plus one other) to sit on both groups for a two-year term.

The Communications Oversight Committee is responsible for supervising the execution of ICMM’s communications strategy and ensuring integration of communications across all our work.
