ZONAL CONFIGURATION

The Global Governing Body Commission (GBC) has structured zonal configurations based on Srila Prabhupada's guidance, establishing jurisdictions for its members over a limited number of temples, notably about six. The 1975 assignments spanned cities like Boston, Los Angeles, and Vancouver, while the 2008 expansions covered regions such as Eastern Siberia and various countries in Africa and Asia. The 2011 resolution further refined zones in North America, maintaining relevance in managing and supporting ISKCON temples worldwide. This document outlines the historical evolution of GBC zonal strategies.
