Historique

Job Title: Task Manager on Training and Research

Project Title/Department: Rule of Law Partnership (ROLP) Project in Uzbekistan/Good Governance Unit

Duration of the assignment: 6 months (with possible extension subject to satisfactory performance)

Duty station: Tashkent

Work status (full time / part time): Full time

Reports To: Project Manager

The overall goal of the Rule of Law Partnership (ROLP) Project is to strengthen public access to and trust in Uzbekistan’s civil court system. The project will work towards this goal through a primary partnership with the Supreme Court and, as appropriate, other justice sector stakeholders, building on these institutions’ capacities to strengthen public trust and achieve greater alignment with internationally-recognized standards of civil court’s accountability, rule of law and judicial performance.

The ROLP project will identify concrete challenges and implement corresponding activities that can measurably improve judicial functionality. Through agreed upon interventions, this project will help strengthen judicial independence and accountability, a critical step towards improving the rule of law in Uzbekistan and ensuring the nations’ further progress towards a democratic society. The project will work on improving services, making citizens feel invested in the court system and increasing citizen access to the courts (civil and economic). This will be achieved through improving judicial system performance, enhancing the knowledge and technical skills of judges, lawyers and court personnel and increasing responsiveness to citizen feedback regarding the judicial process.

The ROLP project has 3 main objectives:

1) Increasing court responsiveness to citizen feedback on civil justice administration through development of institutional mechanisms for public awareness raising;

2) Enhancing the knowledge and technical skills of judges, lawyers and court personnel;

3) Improving court administration systems and performance.

While the project envisions the Supreme Court of Uzbekistan as its primary point of contact and main national implementing partner, it will also closely collaborate with the Research Centre under the Supreme Court; the Judicial Department under the MOJ; the MOJ Training Centre; the Tashkent State University of Law; the Higher Economic Court; the Legal Problems Research Centre and other justice sector reform champions which possess the political will to implement reforms. Through working with a number of partners, the project can ensure that maximum impact is achieved, as well as a strategic, coordinated and holistic approach to increasing public access to and trust in Uzbekistan’s judicial system. The approach will not only include national partners, but will also cooperate with international organizations and donors, to provide for a coordinated response to national development needs. Funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the project will closely work with USAID in accordance with the Cooperative Agreement No.AID-176-IO-14-00001.
