 Interpol employs a great diversity of staff, women and men, from many of its 194 member countries. Some are civilians, recruited directly by the organisation, and others are police officers seconded by our member countries. On this International Women's Day, it is important to remember that we still have a way to go in maximising the talent women bring to making the world a safer place. As Director of Human Resources here at Interpol, I'd like to encourage women to keep a close eye on our vacancies. We want your talent and your expertise and can offer challenging and interesting opportunities, which allow for both professional and personal development. I hope this coming year will see more women join Interpol at all levels in order to contribute to the fight against international crime, not just here in Lyon, France, but at Interpol duty stations around the world.
