2026 Board of Directors

Our entirely voluntary 10-member Board of Directors is the governing body responsible for guiding the American Society of Rio de Janeiro toward a sustainable future. The Board oversees the Society’s mission, strategy, goals, and activities, ensuring sound legal and financial governance while fostering a strong and engaged community.  The Board Members who serve as Executive Officers are responsible for the day-to-day management and decision-making that ensure the smooth operation of the Society. 

​

We thank our Board for their dedication and service in helping shape the future of the American Society of Rio de Janeiro.  The American Society of Rio members elect a board every two years.   The next election will be in December 2026.
