The permanent council is the highest authority of UIHJ after the congress. Its role consists of enforcing the resolutions passed at the congress. A permanent council is held each year in Paris, on the last week of November. For the European countries, another permanent council is held in May in an European country, except on the years where there is an UIHJ international congress.
