SEATINI is run by an executive director, a deputy director and coordinator of Sothern Africa, and a coordinator of Eastern Africa. These principle officers are assisted by a minimal supporting staff
and a team of researchers, consultants, and international
experts with practical experience in the area of trade negotiations.
SEATINI also draws heavily from international organisations
such as the UNCTAD, UNDP and the WTO. SEATINI is largely funded by grants from donors
and in-kind contributions from African Governments.
