The Global Judicial Integrity Network serves as a collaborative platform for judges and judiciaries – it facilitates the exchange of experiences, promotes peer learning and provides practical tools and resources to help address judicial integrity-related challenges across diverse legal systems.
Reflecting the Network’s motto “of judges, for judges,” this collection features thought-provoking articles and thematic briefs written by judges and judicial experts on a wide range of integrity-related topics. It offers a space for sharing experiences, insights and good practices – fostering peer learning and strengthening judicial integrity through the voices of the judiciary itself.
Key events, initiatives and international observances that underscore the importance of judicial integrity and highlight ways to contribute to ongoing efforts within the global judicial community.
Thematic brief: July 2026 | Hon. Rangajeeva Wimalasena, Judge of the National and Supreme Court of Papua New Guinea, Adjunct Professor, Australian Catholic University
“Appearing unruffled has a price. It is paid first by the judge through lost sleep, physical exhaustion, isolation, anxiety or burnout. Eventually, it may also be paid by the justice system through diminished concentration, delayed decisions, reduced institutional trust, the loss of experienced judicial officers and most importantly, compromised integrity and quality of justice.”
