Caption Description The General Assembly holds election of five members of International Court of Justice (ICJ).

Conference Officers show the empty ballot boxes ahead of the elections.

The following five judges are elected (by secret ballot) to the ICJ for a term of office of nine years, beginning on 6 February, 2024: Bogdan-Lucian Aurescu (Romania) Hilary Charlesworth (Australia) Sarah Hull Cleveland (US) Juan Manuel Gómez Robledo Verduzco (Mexico) Dire Tladi (South Africa).

International Court of Justice judges are elected through parallel procedures at the General Assembly and the Security Council, independently of one another. To be elected, a candidate must obtain an absolute majority of votes both in the General Assembly and in the Security Council. In the Security Council, eight votes out of fifteen constitute an absolute majority. In the General Assembly 97 votes out of 193 constitute an absolute majority.
