JUSTICE - No. 66

Justice is one of the goals of the International Association of Jewish Lawyers and Jurists. Thus, the Association works to advance human rights everywhere, addressing in particular issues of concern to the Jewish people through its commitment to combat racism, xenophobia, antisemitism, Holocaust denial and negation of the State of Israel. We invite you to join a membership of lawyers, judges, judicial officers and academic jurists in more than thirty countries who are active locally and internationally in promoting our aims.
