Program Background
DT Global has been engaged by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) to manage the next phase of Australia’s investment in strengthening the delivery of law and justice services in Papua New Guinea for a 4-year period to 31 December 2027.
Australia-Papua New Guinea Law and Justice Partnership (APLJ) seeks to contribute to PNG’s law and justice sector capacity to provide inclusive, safe, secure and accountable law and justice foundations for peaceful and prosperous communities, equitable economic development and private sector growth.
The program aligns with the Government of Papua New Guinea’s (GoPNG) law and justice sector goal of ‘building peaceful and prosperous communities together’. Australia-Papua New Guinea Law and Justice Partnership (APLJ) will focus on three End of Program Outcomes (EOPOs):
EOPO 1 – Community Safety and Access to Justice at the Local Level: Communities in target locations, especially women, children, persons with disabilities, vulnerable people and those accused of sorcery, have improved access to selected justice and support services.
EOPO 2 – Law and Justice Services Supply: Responsible law and justice sector agencies increasingly provide selected inclusive, responsive, and accountable essential law and justice services in target locations.
EOPO 3 – Leadership, Coordination and Accountability: Responsible law and justice mechanisms demonstrate improved sectoral leadership and coordination of national and subnational law and justice services and improved sector integrity systems.
Australia-Papua New Guinea Law and Justice Partnership (APLJ) has a strong focus on addressing gender equality, disability equity and social inclusion (GEDSI): this includes continued and strengthened attention to Gender Based Violence[1] (GBV) and strengthened opportunities for women in leadership, as well as increased focus on the engagement of persons with a disability and other particularly marginalised populations.
The program will continue Australia’s support to law and justice development in demonstration provinces across Papua New Guinea, including the Autonomous Region of Bougainville (ARoB).
