Remotely by teleconference

IARC
Stephen M. Robbins (CIHR institute of Cancer Research)
Description

IARC’s general policy is directed by a Governing Council, composed of the Representatives of Participating States and of the WHO Director-General. Its research programme is regularly reviewed by a Scientific Council. The Governing Council elects IARC’s Director, who normally serves for a five-year term.

In May 2018, the Governing Council elected Dr Elisabete Weiderpass (Brazil) as Director of the Agency, for a five-year term. She took office on 1 January 2019.

The IARC Governing Council meets every year in ordinary session the week before the WHO World Health Assembly.
