The International Commission of Jurists (ICJ), based in Geneva is a non-governmental organisation committed to the primacy, coherence and implementation of international law and principles that advance human rights.

Founded in Berlin in 1952, the ICJ's membership is composed of sixty eminent jurists who represent the different legal systems of the world. In carrying out its work, the ICJ benefits from a network of autonomous national sections and affiliated organizations located in all continents.

What distinguishes the ICJ is its impartial, objective and authoritative legal approach to the protection and promotion of human rights through the rule of law.
