Dear Fiona,
A Global Secretariat was not "formed"; this is simply the name we have
given to the people who have done and still do most of the work at
global level - some of them for many years and some (e.g. our two new
co-chairs) just starting.
The organogram is on the IYRP website - under Global Resources on the
front page - in 7 languages (although not all of them have been updated)
- https://iyrp.info/resources/front - more translations welcome!
Cheers,
Ann
