UNODC is carrying out a baseline survey on

judicial integrity and capacity in 4 provinces

in Indonesia. This survey is part of a 2-year

project, ‘Strengthening Judicial Integrity and

Capacity in Indonesia, Phase II’, funded

by the German Government. In April, UNODC held a seminar with

representatives from the Supreme Court, Attorney General’s Offi ce,

Indonesian National Police, University of Indonesia and The Indonesian

Legal Aid Institute Foundation to fi nalise the questionnaire.

This survey will involve judges, court staff, prosecutors, police, lawyers,

court users, detainees and businessmen in Southeast Sulawesi,

South Sumatra, East Java and Riau. The survey results will provide

a comprehensive picture of access to justice issues at the local level,

including the timeliness and quality of justice services, public trust in the

judiciary, the existence of integrity safeguards and the extend to which

corruption is occurring within the justice sector.
