Governance

Our governing bodies ensure that INTERPOL’s activities respect the common goals of our global membership.

INTERPOL’s direction and policy are decided by our member countries through our governing bodies: the General Assembly and Executive Committee.

The General Assembly is INTERPOL’s supreme governing body, comprising representatives from each of our member countries. It meets once a year and each session lasts around four days. Its purpose is to ensure that INTERPOL’s activities correspond to the needs of our member countries.

The Executive Committee is the governing body in charge of supervising the execution of the General Assembly’s decisions and the administration and work of the General Secretariat. It meets three times a year.
