The International Association of Women Judges (IAWJ) is a non-profit,
non-governmental organization of more than 4,000 members at all judicial
levels in more than 90 nations. Since forming in 1991, the IAWJ has united
women judges from diverse legal-judicial systems who share a commitment
to equal justice and the rule of law.
The IAWJ believes that women judges are in a unique position to advance the rights of women through the judicial system, and to protect and empower women throughout the world. Through pioneering judicial education programs and worldwide collaboration, the IAWJ is working to advance human rights, eliminate discrimination on the basis of gender, and make courts accessible to all.
In dialogue with women judges from all levels and different types of courts, IAWJ members share experiences and best practices in such areas as violence and discrimination against women, international child abduction and gender bias in the courts.
