Job Location Jakarta with trips to provinces

Job Summary

The Australia Indonesia Partnership for Justice (‘AIPJ’) is a five year program funded by AusAID. 

The strategy of AIPJ is to focus on realising the rights of Indonesians, in particular poor women and people with disabilities.  The program approaches realising rights by working in partnership with key government institutions (the supply side) as well as civil society and local communities (the demand side), and the intersection between the two. 

Building on the successes of previous Australian law and justice programs, AIPJ focuses on the following rights:
  • Legal identity (birth, marriage and divorce certificates) as one precondition to realising basic economic and social rights, such as education and health care.
  • The right to fair proceedings which are:
    • independent and impartial
    • fast, consistent, affordable and accessible.
  • The right to legal information.

In working to realise these rights, AIPJ focuses on both national and sub-national levels, where central decision-making is taken, and where lessons from the field can inform this decision making.  Support is targeted at areas that Indonesia has identified as being of critical importance to the sector, and for which assistance is likely to bring about sustainable and meaningful impacts, namely:

    1. Judicial dispute resolution mechanisms
    2. Prosecutions Office
    3. Anti-corruption
    4. Legal aid.

AIPJ will also work with oversight commissions, recognising their role in strengthening accountability of the custodians of justice systems, and through that accountability, driving strengthened performance.

Having a clear legal identity, such as a birth certificate, marriage certificate, divorce certificate, is an important precondition to realising basic economic and social rights.  Without such an identity, Indonesians, in particular women and children, may be denied basic rights, and therefore the equal ability to live with dignity.  Establishing legal identity contributes to realising Millennium Development Goals, for example ensuring children can complete primary schooling.  It also assists the government to provide basic services on the basis of more comprehensive understanding of actual demographics. 

A significant part of AIPJ’s work on legal identity encompasses the ‘Realising Rights: Ensuring Access to Legal Identity in Indonesia’ program which is being implemented in partnership with Pusat Kajian Perlindungan Anak Universitas Indonesia (PuskaPA).
