East Asia and the Pacific Justice for the Poor Initiative World Bank and AusAID actively support justice sector reform programs  in the East Asia and Pacific region. The Justice for the Poor (J4P)  Initiative will support projects that deal with theoretical and  practical challenges of promoting pro-poor justice reform in the  developing world.

J4P will draw  upon AusAID's vast justice sector reform experience in the region, as  well as the Bank's experience.
 
 The program is designed to strengthen and expand existing J4P programs  in the region (Cambodia and Indonesia) and develop a number of new  country programs (Timor-Leste, Vanuatu and the Solomon Islands,  possibly Fiji and PNG as well as other). J4P is directly mentioned in  the country CASs in those countries where it is already operating and  is being incorporated into the pacific regional strategy this year.
 
 
 The overall goal of the East Asia and the Pacific Justice for the Poor  Initiative is to:
 o	Support local justice and governance reform efforts by providing  assistance to specific country initiatives and by facilitating  regional knowledge sharing and cross-country learning; and
 o	Improve donor understanding and approaches to supporting  justice/governance reform, drawing on lessons learned from country and  regional experiences.
