About
Overview:The JP was implemented at a time of transition in the country, during the constitutive process but before the approval of the new constitution. The national transition process has three core challenges: i) at the state level; more inclusive institutions that support the Rule of Law, ii) at the popular level; through the incorporation of civil society and citizens in the decision making process; and, iii) in the linkages between the institutional level and the social level so that spaces of dialogue between citizens and institutions exist and lead to closer relations. The programme’s strategy is therefore to support the transition to a democratic model by: 1) support to institutional strengthening of the Rule of Law; 2) support the legislative developments within the new constitutional framework with emphasis on the decentralized autonomous model; 3) the development of capacities to constructively manage conflicts. The Juridical Unit appears as a major achievement, since it evolved in line with the legislative needs and the political context. A national policy against racism and all forms of discrimination was prepared, and that needed the support of the National Committee against Racism in order to provide an anchor to the policy. Within the decentralization process the Ministry of Autonomous regions ensured that the institutional structures were in line with the new law on autonomous regions. Women were identified as central actors of the transition process and were both actors and beneficiaries of the long process of approving the law on Gender Based Violence that will hopefully contribute to ending impunity against violence perpetrators. The recognition of youth as full citizens under the new state constitution also led to greater participation from youth (41% of the population). Different actions were taken with a view of developing inclusive and participatory institutions within the Rule of Law (for example “The Voice of Children” initiative, opening of dialogue spaces within the office of the Ombudsman). As regards to conflict management, the Ombudsman office has seen many changes including increased human resources for their conflict unit (from 2 to 6 staff). A monitoring mechanism was developed for conflicts that will also allow to systematize and use the experiences to enhance their mitigation and mediation capacity.
