The Global Justice Network, often simply called "GJ", is a top secret worldwide espionage and peacekeeping organization. It is featured in the series Kim Possible.
History[]
Its director is Betty Director, more commonly known as Dr. Director. The organization deals with any threats to the world which fall outside the scope of normal law enforcement groups. It also has some of the world's finest scientists, weapons, and agents. The organization has a subversive way, whether it is sucking Kim Possible into a trap door through a series of transport tubes or arranging a phony crime to lure her to a meeting site. The organization itself requires some help from time to time, and Dr. Director isn't too proud to call in reinforcements if it means the job gets done, which is where Kim Possible comes in.

Trivia[]
- GJ is a parody of Marvel Comics' S.H.I.E.L.D., a secret international intelligence agency head by Nick Fury (who, like Dr. Director, wears an eyepatch).
- Global Justice Center is also the name of a real-life women's rights organization. Given the message of empowerment inherent in Kim Possible, this makes for an interesting choice of name, if nothing else.
- Considering the speed and "friction glow" of Kim's first "tube ride", the facility she arrived at would be quite a distance away, and not immediately under or near Middleton as some might believe.
- Seen in many episodes are GJ operatives wearing grey versions of Betty and Will's outfit.
- One of these operatives bears a striking resemblance to Quentin Tarantino. He can also be seen in plainsclothes plenty of places in the background.
- Which makes sense if GJ was monitoring Kim and Ron.
- In plenty of episodes are troopers in grey suits with black helmets and shock harnesses. Although not specifically mentioned as GJ operatives, their appearance and functions suggest they may be.
- One of these operatives bears a striking resemblance to Quentin Tarantino. He can also be seen in plainsclothes plenty of places in the background.
- Flynn Cognito is a character developed for the Kim Possible World Showcase Adventure attraction at Disney's Epcot Park at the Walt Disney World Resort at Lake Buena Vista, FL.
- "Flynn Cognito" is an allusion to the word "incognito", which means "unrecognizable or in disguise".
- Although a non-canon –yet Official– character, Agent Cognito is the second non-scientist GJ Operative ever seen not wearing either a blue or grey Global Justice uniform. The first is an agent who bears a remarkable resemblance to actor and director Quentin Tarantino.
