Travel Opportunities

Thinking of where to travel to next?

Have you ever wondered what life in the countries you travel to is really like? Or thought about travelling to a far-away country but not dared to do this all single-handedly?

IPA membership offers a whole range of travel opportunities.

A short look on the events and news page of our website will illustrate the variety of options available, ranging from Friendship Weeks in Russia or Canada, to special interest events you can join in Spain or Ireland. Whether you fancy hiking in the Austrian Alps or getting to know the treasures of Sri Lanka, the IPA is able to offer something for everyone.

In addition to organised group travel options, the IPA also offers assistance when travelling on your own or with your family: with the help of a travel form, many members take the chance to get to know IPA members in other countries on either a short stay in a city, or while touring a country. A truly unique chance to see the world from a local’s perspective, and to exchange with fellow police officers what policing in their country entails.

Many of these encounters have resulted in life-long friendships.
