The International Military Justice Forum (IMJF) is a biennial academic conference dedicated to advancing scholarship and education in military justice and military criminal law. Organized by the Centre de Recherche de l'Académie Militaire de Saint-Cyr Coëtquidan (CReC Saint-Cyr) in collaboration with institutions such as Stellenbosch University and the Société de Législation Comparée, the forum brings together academics, military officers, legal professionals, and students interested in these disciplines.

The forum covers a wide range of topics, including the history and evolution of military justice systems, comparative analyses of national models, and discussions on reforms in military justice worldwide. Sessions often delve into interdisciplinary themes, incorporating perspectives from history, law, ethics, philosophy, and emerging technologies to foster comprehensive debates and discussions.

Attendees can expect opportunities for networking with peers and experts in the field, as well as access to an expo hall featuring relevant publications and resources. Notable speakers typically include esteemed scholars, high-ranking military officials, and legal practitioners who provide valuable insights into contemporary issues in military justice.

The IMJF is ideal for academics, military personnel, legal professionals, and students seeking to deepen their understanding of military justice systems and engage in meaningful discussions on their development and reform.
