The International Association of Judges was founded in Salzburg (Austria) in 1953. It is a professional, non-political, international organisation, bringing together national associations of judges, not individual judges, approved by the Central Council for admission to the Association.
The main aim of the Association is to safeguard the independence of the judiciary, which is an essential requirement of the judicial function, guaranteeing human rights and freedom.
The organization currently encompasses 92 such national associations or representative groups, from five Continents.
The International Association of Judges is organised in four Regional Groups (EAJ, IBA, AG, ANAO) and has four Study Commissions:
| European Association of Judges | Iberoamerican Group | African Group | Asian, North American and Oceanian Group |
| 1st Study Commission |
2nd Study Commmission |
3rd Study Commmission |
4th Study Commmission |
