The Legal Framework of NGO Board Governance
Board governance of a non-governmental organization in Georgia is regulated by four norms of the Civil Code: governance and representation (Article 35), state control over activity and the response to entrepreneurial drift (Article 33), the purpose test for disposing of property (Article 36), and the rules of reorganization and liquidation (Article 38). These four form precisely the frame in which a board works: who holds which authority, what befalls the organization when governance errs, and how its life ends.
