We wish to thank the French National Judiciary School and the French Ministry of Justice for their financial support, which has allowed us to design our website.

L'AMUE organise des colloques et conférences. Ainsi, nous avons organisé les 29 et 30 septembre 2005 un colloque à l'antenne parisienne de l'Ecole Nationale de la Magistrature, sur le thème de " l'Espace judiciaire européen ". Le public nombreux a pu apprécier notamment les interventions de Robert Badinter, ancien Garde des sceaux, de Jean-Marie Huet, Directeur des affaires criminelles et des grâces, de Bruno Sturlese, Chef du SAEI, d'Olivier de Baynast, Procureur Général près la Cour d'appel d'Amiens et de Gilles Charbonnier, Secrétaire général du réseau européen de formation judiciaire.

Two editors, Stephen Almaseanu, investigating magistrate in Strasbourg, and Philippe Bruey, prosecutor in Aix-en-Provence, are in charge of publishing a monthly online newspaper about the European judicial system, entitled "La Lettre des magistrats de l'Union Européenne".

The EJPA means to improve the mutual knowledge of our judiciary systems, in order to make judiciary cooperation between European countries come true on a daily basis. That is why the association keeps a list of all training courses that can be done abroad. More than ten members have been able to go abroad and go on such a training last year.

The EJPA wants to make its members communicate together, using a chatting list. A Justice Phone Book was also created, allowing our members to find out and communicate with any other European judge or prosecutor (spoken languages are mentioned on the book ). The EJPA tries to promote the European Judiciary Area by taking part in different events, such as the creation and updating of law files related to all the members of the European Union, in partnership with the French National Judiciary School.

The European Judges and Prosecutors Association was created in March 2004 by trainee judges and prosecutors from the French National Judiciary School.
The project has been supported from the very beginning by Gilbert Azibert, former director of the School from 2002 to 2005, and Yves-Pierre Le Roux, former Professor at the School from 1996 to 2005.
The association gathers members (judges, trainee judges and prosecutors) from nine different European countries (France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Germany, Netherlands, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania). In France, our members come from no less than eighty different Courts.

The European Judges and Prosecutors Association (EJPA) aims at :
- gathering together judges, prosecutors and citizens from the European Union and from countries who have applied to EU membership, interested in matters of judicial cooperation ;
- improving the mutual knowledge of our judiciary systems.
