The primary function of the advisory board is to give strategic directions to the Centre. Other functions include the promotion and supervision of research activities in the Centre, giving out policy directions, support of various stakeholders and tasks in collaboration and partnership with other organisations and agencies as well as giving out general guidelines and directions for the operations of the Centre.

The Chairman of the Advisory Board, Prof. Francis Eric Amuquandoh, Provost of College of Humanities and Legal Studies (CHLS) in his acceptance speech expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to serve CEGRAD and the ºÚÁÏÉç in this manner. He also acknowledged the importance of gender issues in light of university rankings.
