組織背景
本會於2010年4月17日成立,原為基金會理事組織的臨時委員會。 The committee was briefly assisted by Sal Giambanco from the Omidyar Network. 此後,本會向理事會提出報告,其初步建議獲得採納。 The Board established the Committee as an official sub-committee with a charter and defined tasks[2][3]).
On September 15, 2021, the Board dissolved the Board Governance Committee, and created the Governance Committee[4] and adopted its Charter[5].
