This paper is a midterm program evaluation of the Changes for Justice (C4J) Project to determine if USAIDs support for justice sector reform is aligned and responsive to the reform agendas and needs of its GOI partner institutions.The paper will also examine if USAID support is integral and critical to the SC and AGOs efforts to reform as well as examine the effects of any unexpected decrease in funding for C4J prior to its scheduled closure date. The C4J is a 19 million dollar fouryear project focused on sustaining and deepening reforms in the Indonesian justice sector to produce a less corrupt, a more accountable and more highly performing justice system. This goal will be achieved through more efficient, credible, and transparent functioning of the Supreme Court (Component 1) and the Attorney Generals Office (Component 2), including increasing the competence and integrity of judges, prosecutors and staff. Integral to meeting these goals, Component 3 is designed to meet special initiatives of the US government (USG) to further strengthen the reform process in the Indonesian justice sector.
