How We're Governed

Federated Governance Structure

UPNG HSA adopts a federated, hybrid model that combines centralized oversight with a decentralized programme execution body — each with its own path to leadership.

Centralized Oversight

Main Executive Council

The association's centralized governing body — the nine elected and appointed officers featured above, responsible for overall direction, financial stewardship, and representing members within the university.

Decentralized Execution

Triangle Programme — Autonomous Unit

An incorporated, semi-autonomous body responsible for executing the association's flagship Triangle Programme, along with its digital systems & media committee.
