The Institute organises itself around a division of labour between strategic governance, specialist research, project delivery, public communication and administrative support. Personnel names and statutory positions are published by administrators after internal authorisation.

Governance and Boundaries of Responsibility
The Council is responsible for strategic direction, institutional oversight and deliberation of major matters; the Academic Committee for academic standards, research ethics and the assessment of outputs; and the executive management for the annual plan, budget, projects and external cooperation. Research centres carry out thematic research and produce outputs, while communication and support departments handle publishing, events, the digital platform, finance and administrative compliance.
