The Dersim Museum in Exile has four bodies:
- The Board of Trustees;
- The Scientific Advisory Board;
- The Supporters' Circle of Social Groups;
- The representative of the sponsoring company.
The Board of Trustees decides on all fundamental questions of a content-related, financial or personnel nature. The Scientific Advisory Board and the Supporters' Circle of Social Groups advise the Board of Trustees and the sponsoring company. Together they help to ensure that the sponsoring company fulfils its mandate.
