International Association of Judges

The International Association of Judges (IAJ) is a global organization that promotes the independence and integrity of the judiciary. Founded in 1953, it brings together judges from different countries to share best practices, uphold judicial standards, and support the rule of law. The IAJ aims to strengthen judicial independence, protect judges' rights, and enhance public confidence in the courts. By fostering cooperation among judges worldwide, the association works to ensure that justice is administered fairly and effectively, regardless of a country's political or social context.
