Governance & accountability
Independent academic governance and transparent decision-making form the foundation of ERA's credibility.
A framework built on
independent expertise.
The proposed structure separates strategic oversight, academic advice, evaluation, research ethics and programme administration.
ERA Governing Council
Approves policies and regulations; appoints independent committees; approves annual categories and calendar; ratifies final results; oversees accountability.
International Academic Advisory Board
Advises on international academic standards; recommends qualified experts; supports global partnerships and disciplinary representation.
Award Selection Committee
Evaluates shortlisted nominations; ensures consistent scoring; documents recommendations; declares conflicts of interest.
Research Ethics Committee
Reviews research integrity concerns; investigates credible allegations; recommends disqualification and advises on post-award withdrawal.
ERA Secretariat
Manages applications and communication; maintains records and databases; coordinates the ceremony; publishes the annual award report.
The Vice Chancellor of Eurasian Campus may serve as Founding Chairperson of the Governing Council. However, institutional management should not unilaterally determine winners. Final assessments should be carried out by independent academic experts. All judges must sign confidentiality and conflict-of-interest declarations.
