The UMAP Board consists of representatives of each member country/territory.
The board provides guidance and oversight of the policies and programs of the organization and can appoint committees or task forces to work on special projects or priority topics.
The UMAP International Secretariat is responsible for the management and administration of the day-to-day operations of UMAP and serves as the liaison for the member secretariats.
Each member country/territory sets up a National Secretariat to be the primary point of contact in its country/territory and to be responsible for the promotion and development of the UMAP Exchange Programs.
