Governance Charter

NRE Health Institute

1. Purpose of This Charter

This Governance Charter defines the structural authority, mandate boundaries, oversight mechanisms and accountability architecture of the NRE Health Institute.

It establishes:

• Institutional scope
• Decision-making structure
• Review procedures
• Oversight discipline
• Documentation control
• Functional separation

This Charter provides formal clarity regarding how institutional authority is exercised and constrained.

2. Institutional Mandate

The NRE Health Institute operates as the research, standards and governance body within the broader NRE framework.

Its mandate is limited to:

• Development of preventive health models
• Publication of governance standards
• Risk-aware policy documentation
• Analytical review of aligned initiatives
• Regulatory interface preparation

The Institute does not:

• Operate as a medical authority
• Provide licensed clinical services
• Issue statutory directives
• Exercise enforcement powers

Authority is analytical and structural, not coercive.

3. Structural Authority Model

The Institute operates under a documented authority model comprising:

A. Mandate Definition

The Institute’s scope is publicly documented and subject to review.

B. Functional Delineation

Separation is maintained between:

• Research development
• Standards formulation
• Cultural or advocacy communication
• Spiritual or philosophical expressions within associated entities

This prevents mandate overlap and governance confusion.

C. Documented Decision Authority

All institutional publications and standards require structured internal review prior to release.

4. Oversight Mechanisms

Oversight is exercised through:

• Internal review protocols
• Version-controlled documentation
• Risk boundary verification
• Publication approval procedures
• Periodic structural review

All formal outputs are archived and traceable.

5. Review & Amendment Procedures

This Charter and associated governance documents are subject to periodic review.

Amendments require:

• Formal documentation
• Internal review approval
• Public version update
• Archive retention of prior versions

Changes are recorded to maintain institutional transparency.

6. Accountability Principles

The Institute operates under the following accountability standards:

• Scope clarity
• Transparency of limitations
• Regulatory respect
• Risk awareness
• Non-sexual classification integrity
• Public safety prioritization

The Institute acknowledges its role as a civil research and standards body operating within existing legal frameworks.

7. Independence & Alignment

The NRE Health Institute functions within the NRE ecosystem but maintains structural independence in standards development and governance interpretation.

This independence ensures:

• Analytical objectivity
• Clear boundary maintenance
• Avoidance of mandate conflation

Institutional discipline supersedes promotional considerations.

8. Documentation Integrity

All governance documents:

• Are version-controlled
• Carry publication dates
• Distinguish draft from final versions
• Are subject to archival preservation

Documentation integrity is considered essential to institutional credibility.

9. Effective Date

This Governance Charter became effective upon the formal establishment of the NRE Health Institute in 2026 and remains in force unless formally amended under documented procedures.
