Ibero-American Code of Judicial Ethics
The Code has had a remarkable impact on the 23 member countries of the Ibero-American Judicial Summit. On one hand, it has been adopted as the Code of direct application in certain countries, such as Uruguay, and, on the other, it has greatly influenced the adoption of new ethical codes applicable to judges, particularly in the case of the Spanish Code of Judicial Ethics.
The Code and the Committee reveal the existence of an Ibero-American judicial sphere with shared judicial values, which seeks to strengthen existing effective links and create a framework for cooperation and mutual trust among Ibero-American judges.
