IPA Status at International Organisations

Our Recognised Status

United Nations (UN)
The IPA holds consultative status with the United Nations, enabling us to participate in UN conferences, submit statements, and contribute to global discussions on peace, security, and international cooperation. Our representatives are active in New York, Geneva, Vienna, and Nairobi.

🏛 UNESCO
With recognition from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, the IPA collaborates on projects that promote education, cultural understanding, heritage protection, and international dialogue.

Organization of American States (OAS)
Through our status at the OAS, the IPA engages with initiatives focused on democracy, human rights, security, and cooperation across the Americas, fostering stronger regional connections and understanding.

European Transparency Register
As a registered organisation, the IPA demonstrates its commitment to openness and accountability when engaging with European Union institutions. This status allows us to advocate effectively and transparently in matters relevant to our members and objectives.

Why This Matters

These official recognitions give the IPA a respected voice on the international stage, allowing us to:

  • Advocate for the interests of our members worldwide
  • Collaborate on meaningful global and regional projects
  • Promote cross-cultural understanding and mutual respect
  • Influence policy discussions related to policing, security, and community engagement

 

Through these partnerships, we continue to uphold the IPA’s principles and contribute positively to the global community.
