International Justice Mission (IJM)

The International Justice Mission (IJM) was launched in 1997, after a two year survey of overseas evangelical Christian ministries. IJM is a Christ-centered, professional, bridge building non-governmental organization, founded by Gary Haugan, a former senior trial attorney with the US Justice Department and 1994 UN Genocide investigator in Rwanda . The organization helps people suffering injustice and oppression who cannot rely on local authorities for relief. IJM's methods include documentation, intervention, emergency relief, perpetrator accountability, structural prevention, victim care and education. They are actively involved in women's anti-trafficking operations. IJM can serve an important human rights role helping to identify ways in which religions and traditions (especially faith-based evangelical Christian religions) may discriminate against women based on the Juridical and Factual aspects of the U.N. Human Rights Study.
