Background:
The Australia Indonesia Partnership for Justice (‘AIPJ’) is a five year program (through to December 2015) funded by Australian AID.
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:
- Judicial dispute resolution mechanisms
- Prosecutions Office
- Anti-corruption
- Legal aid.
