The American Association for the International Commission of Jurists (AAICJ) is an organization of legal professionals dedicated to promoting the Rule of Law and an Independent Judiciary, both domestically and internationally, in order to improve human rights standards. They provide legal expertise at both the international and national levels, ensuring that developments in international law adhere to human rights principles and that international standards are implemented at the national level.
AAICJ hosts an annual colloquium where human rights policy practitioners gather to discuss the evolving regional implementation of human rights, the integration of human rights into policies and practices, and options for dealing with alleged war crimes and acts of terrorism. They also publish various publications, including the Amici Curiae Brief of the Presbyterian Church of Sudan v. Talisman Energy, Inc., which provides legal insights on important cases related to human rights. AAICJ is an affiliated organization of the International Commission of Jurists (ICJ) in Geneva.
