About · Governance
The bylaws are the governing document of MAP International: how the organization is structured, what directors and organizers are responsible for, and how decisions get made.
The current text of the bylaws is being prepared for publication and will be posted on this page. We are reviewing it alongside our 2026 governance review so that what appears here is the operative document rather than an outdated draft.
Until then, chapter organizers and members who need to consult the bylaws, say, for a departmental registration, a funding application, or a question about how MAP International is run, can request the current text from us directly, and we will send it to you.
The structure of MAP International and the relationship between MAP International and its autonomous chapters. The roles, terms, and responsibilities of directors and organizers. How organizers are selected and how leadership passes from one cohort to the next. How decisions are made, how funds are handled, and how the organization maintains its 501(c)(3) status.
Our policy on statement-making and on briefs, reports, proposals, and how-to guides is published separately and is in force now.
