This is a group responsible for the direction, vision, and development of the Foundation. Drawing from the legacy of St. John Paul II, they ensure that our actions remain faithful to the Foundation's idea and respond to the challenges of our time.

According to the Statute, the current Metropolitan Archbishop of Kraków is also ex officio a member of the Administrative Board, exercising the so-called higher authority in the Foundation (art. 4 § 1). Currently, this is Card. Grzegorz Ryś. Additionally, by virtue of the same Statute: "Card. Stanisław Dziwisz, formerly Special Secretary of His Holiness John Paul II, as a special witness of his Pontificate, is ex officio a member of the Administrative Board" (art. 5 § 3).
