Founded in 1923 and headquartered in Lyon, France, the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) is the world’s largest international police organization, facilitating cross-border police cooperation among its 195 member countries. As an intergovernmental body, INTERPOL supports law enforcement agencies by providing a secure communications network, criminal databases, and operational support. Its current strategic priorities focus on seven key crime areas: (1) counter-terrorism, (2) cybercrime, (3) organized and emerging crime, (4) drug and human trafficking, (5) child exploitation, (6) environmental crime, and (7) financial and corruption-related crimes. INTERPOL plays a vital role in global security by promoting international collaboration and intelligence sharing.

​

The INTERPOL is designed for delegates of all experience levels. Position papers are not mandatory for this committee, but must be completed in order to be considered for an award.
