The FIBA Congress is the supreme legislative body of the International Basketball Federation (French: Fédération Internationale de Basketball), commonly known by the acronym FIBA/ˈfiːbə/. FIBA is the international governing body of basketball.
The Congress takes place every two years. A mid-term congress takes place in the middle of a four-year cycle, an extraordinary congress may be held at any time, within three months of a request to the Secretary-General, with the support of one-fifth of the members of FIBA.[1]
The elective congress takes place at the start and end of a particular four-year cycle, and its functions include the election of the FIBA President and members of its Central Board. Each of the 212 members of FIBA has one vote in the Congress.
