ODISSEI is led by two independent bodies: a Supervisory Board and a Management Board. The Coordination Team supports the functioning of ODISSEI on a daily basis.
- The Supervisory Board
It is the highest body and consists of seven delegates from member organisations of ODISSEI. The Supervisory Board meets at least once a year and decides on the annual plan and budget. It is supported by the ODISSEI Coordination Team at Erasmus University Rotterdam. - The Management Board
Led by Daniel Oberski, Professor of Social and Health Data Science at Utrecht University, it is appointed by the Supervisory Board. The Management Board meets approximately eight times a year and is responsible for ODISSEI’s daily management. - The Coordination Team
The Coordination Team is responsible for the daily operations of ODISSEI. The Coordination Team (CT) is assigned by the Management Board (MB) and is located at the lead member organisation, Erasmus University Rotterdam. - The Early Career Board
The Early Career Board is an independent body that operates on behalf of early-career researchers within the ODISSEI network. The main goal of the Board is to map the needs of this target group and determine the most timely actions to support it.
