International membership

We really look forward to creating a wider community, sharing professional skills and resources and raising awareness globally. 

If you live outside the UK but in a country with an established intermediary scheme, you can join IfJ as a Full or Associate International member. 

In countries where intermediary schemes are not yet available, IfJ offers free Associate membership. Please enquire directly by email to joinus@intermediaries-for-justice.org

For further details please see our Membership policy.
