The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Board of Governors meeting took place in March 2025. The Board of Governors is one of the two policy-making bodies of the IAEA, alongside the annual General Conference of IAEA Member States.

During these meetings, the board reviews and makes recommendations on various aspects such as financial statements, programs, and budgets to the General Conference. It also considers membership applications, approves safeguards agreements, and authorizes the publication of safety standards. Furthermore, with approval from the General Conference, it appoints the Director General of the IAEA.
