9: INTERPOL's DISTINCTIVE SIGNS

The official name is 'ICPO-INTERPOL'. 'ICPO' stands for 'International Criminal Police Organization'. The word 'INTERPOL' is a contraction of 'international police', and was chosen in 1946 as the telegraphic address. In 1956, the International Criminal Police Commission changed its name to become the International Criminal Police Organization - INTERPOL.

The emblem, in use since 1950, comprises the following elements:

  • a representation of the globe, to indicate that INTERPOL's activities are worldwide

  • olive branches at either side of the globe to symbolize peace

  • the name 'INTERPOL' below the globe in the centre of the olive branches

  • a vertical sword behind the globe to represent police action

  • the abbreviations 'OIPC' and 'ICPO' above the globe at either side of the sword

  • the scales below the olive branches to symbolize justice.

The flag of interpol

The flag has been in use since 1950: it has a light-blue background , the four lightning flashes arranged symmetrically around the emblem represent telecommunications and speed in police action.

In 1971, motivated by their vision of a green and peaceful world, a small team of activists set sail from Vancouver, Canada, in an old fishing boat. These activists, the founders of Greenpeace, believed that a few individuals could start changes. Their mission was to "bear witness" to US underground nuclear testing at Amchitka, a tiny a volcanic island in the southwest of Alaska, which is one of the world's most earthquake-prone regions.

NATO

NATO Emblem was adopted as the symbol of the Atlantic Alliance by the North Atlantic Council in October 1953. The circle is the symbol of unity and cooperation and the compass rose suggests the common road to peace taken by the member countries of the Atlantic Alliance.

The united nation

Poland, which was not represented at the Conference, signed it later and became one of the original 51 member states. United Nations Day is celebrated on 24 October each year.
