IBZ Schloss Gimborn and the GS-Foundation have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to strengthen future cooperation in the field of international police and security training.

While the GS Foundation is internationally engaged in the field of Security Sector Reform, IBZ Schloss Gimborn, as the educational institution of the International Police Association IAC (IPA), stands for international exchange, professional training and cooperation between law enforcement and security professionals worldwide.

A first joint international leadership training with delegations from Chile is already planned for August 2026 at IBZ Schloss Gimborn.

We are looking forward to future international cooperation and professional exchange.
