ELARD's supreme decision-making body is the General Assembly, which is formed by all members (active and associated members). Observer status can be given to non-members, in order to participate when needed. The association is administered by the Council, which is appointed for a two years term by the General Assembly. According to the Statutes, the Presidency of the association is being held by each active member for a two years period (rotating system).
Based on this, since 1999 the National LEADER Networks of Italy, France, Spain and Ireland have run ELARD respectively. Since October 2007, the Presidency of ELARD is being held by the Greek LEADER Network and will last up to June 2010.
On the 7th of May 2009, during ELARD's first General Assembly under its new legal status in Belgium the new Council of ELARD was formed as follows:
