Organisation
CER is a Prince Claus Fund program. The Board of the Prince Claus Fund set up the Cultural Emergency Response Steering Committee at CER’s inauguration in September 2003. The CER Steering Committee directs CER’s policy and organisation, and takes decisions on the implementation of its actions. In 2009 the Steering Committee will in collaboration with the Bureau propose a new member for the Steering Committee to the Board of the Prince Claus Fund.
