ACSOW is a democratic, member-based organzation, with members from all countries of the route. The members hold an annual general assembly, where the governing board is elected.
For a path to be recognized as a part of the cultural route, the organization(s) responsible for maintaining the path need to be a member. ACSOW is also open for members not responsible for a physical path, but who rather have a thematic connection to Olav’s heritage or pilgrimage towards Trondheim.
