The Board and the Executive Leadership Team receive advice from the Advisory Board through a range of activities according to their particular skills and interests, on matters relating to the Vietnamese Museum project. The VMA is operated by a team of dedicated volunteers, led by the Executive Leadership Team, in different disciplines such as Finance, Fundraising, Design Construction, IT, Marketing, Contents & Collection, Exhibition and Education.
