The 92nd session of the INTERPOL General Assembly takes place from 4 to 7 November 2024 in Glasgow, United Kingdom.
The General Assembly is INTERPOL’s supreme governing body and comprises delegates appointed by the governments of our member countries.
It meets once a year and takes all the major decisions affecting general policy, the resources needed for international cooperation, working methods, finances and programmes of activities. These decisions are in the form of resolutions.
Agenda
This session of the General Assembly will appoint the next Secretary General for the Organization, as Jürgen Stock completes his second and final mandate after 10 years. The candidate to replace him is Valdecy Urquiza of Brazil, selected by the Executive Committee after a recruitment process earlier this year.
The Assembly will also vote for nine members of the Executive Committee, as the three-year mandates of the incumbents come to an end.
There will be four main interactive panels that will look at different aspects of the future of international policing across the Organization’s global crime programmes:
- Biometric frontline capabilities
- AI and the future of policing
- Sustaining multilateralism – an integrated global security architecture
- The future of law enforcement leadership
Other topics will cover global partnerships, governance and data processing in addition to general policing capabilities.
The Assembly will also vote to approve the programme of activities and budget for 2025.
