AIPJ - Assistant to the Provincial Coordinator (South Sulawesi)

Australia Indonesia Partnership for Justice
Assistant to the Provincial Coordinator – South Sulawesi
The Australia – Indonesia Partnership for Justice (AIPJ) is a five year program funded by Australian Aid with a current closing date of December 2015.
The strategic focus of AIPJ is on realizing the rights of all Indonesians, in particular poor women, vulnerable children and people with disabilities. 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; and 
  • The right to legal information.
AIPJ approaches realizing 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. It does so through seven operational programs: legal identity, court reform, legal aid, legal information, and anti-corruption, civil society strengthening and disability inclusion. These programs operate at both the national level, where decisions are made, and the sub-national level, where lessons from the field can inform national level decision making. See here for a full description of the AIPJ strategy.
AIPJ Provincial Offices are in Kupang, Mataram and Makassar to ensure that AIPJ’s work especially in East Nusa Tenggara (‘NTT’), West Nusa Tenggara (‘NTB’) and South Sulawesi are implemented effectively and to facilitate greater integration of AIPJ with the Australia Indonesia Partnership for Decentralisation (‘AIPD’) and other relevant DFAT Australian aid funded programs.
