Its current membership is limited to thefour founding members of GISP. GISP was supported for threeyears (FY04-FY06) by the World Bank through funds madeavailable through the Development Grant Facility (DGF) andcontinues to receive Bank support through theBank-Netherlands Partnership Program (BNPP). Although GISPis a relatively small program, the World Bank's DGFcontribution of US$1.7 million accounted for 72 percent ofthe program's financing during this three-year period.GISP is governed by an Executive Board which at the time ofthe Global Program Review (GPR) was composed of sevenpersons, including in some cases the most senior rankedmembers of the represented member organizations.
