NIF is run by a governing board, comprising officers and directors from Israel and the Diaspora.  Board members include Naomi Chazan (former member and Deputy Speaker of the Knesset), Itzhak Galnoor (former head of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin’s office) and Martin Indyk (former US Ambassador to Israel).   Other board members include prominent Israeli and US academics, businessmen and philanthropists.  You can see the full list of board members here.

NIF also has an international council, an advisory group established in 2002 to supplement the work of the organisation’s governing board. The role of the international council is to sustain involvement of past board members and to educate, motivate, and nurture future leadership for the NIF.
