DKG Executive Board

The tasks of the DKG Executive Board include the programmatic and content-related conceptualization of the society's activities. It prepares the annual budget of the DKG and manages the assets of the society. Other duties of the Executive Board are set out in the statutes. The Executive Board decided in its meeting on November 16, 2017 in Dornburg-Langendernbach to change from an overall to a functional executive board.

Each DKG board member will thus be responsible for at least one of the following functions/duties within the board and in accountability to the Governing Board, the full Board, and all DKG members.
