The members of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) are elected by two bodies: the United Nations General Assembly and the United Nations Security Council. Each body votes separately to elect judges, with the General Assembly electing judges by a majority and the Security Council by an absolute majority. The elections take place every three years for half of the 15 judges, ensuring a staggered renewal of the court's membership.
