General Council
GMC General Meeting Committee

The business of IDEA is directed by the General Council which is made up of one appointed delegate from each ordinary member. Where there is more than one member from a country, the vote for that country is split proportionally.
General Council Meetings are held during International Congresses and at least once between them.

The work of the General Council is to:
elect the members of the Executive Committee(EC), the General Meeting Committee(GMC) and the Accountancy Committee(AC);
determine the principles of action for IDEA and empower the Executive Committee accordingly;
consider the activities report of the President, and the financial report of the Treasurer, as audited and presented by the Accountancy Committee;
determine the host countries for the international congresses to be held
ratify the nomination of the Congress Director, appointed by the Executive Committee after the organiser of the next congress has been chosen;
determine the host country for the IDEA Secretariat;
vote on the budget; and
fix the amount for membership fees.

The General Meeting Committee (GMC) shall be entrusted with the preparation and guidance of the meetings of the General Council.

The GMC members elected in Paris in July 2013 are:
