Despite Russia's strong economic
growth, over 14 percent of its population, more than 20
million people, still live in poverty. In 2008, the Japan
Social Development Fund (JSDF) provided a grant of US$1.98
million to help make the justice system in Russia more
accessible and accountable to the poorest and most
vulnerable groups in two regions of the country, Leningrad
Oblast and Perm Krai. The grant was strongly supported by
the Embassy of Japan and Russian regional authorities, who
were involved from conceptualization to completion. The
grant piloted two models of legal aid in these two areas,
and it launched a collaborative initiative that enabled
local executive and judicial branch officials and
nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) to work together to
achieve common goals. This JSDF grant has yielded some
promising results. However, the sustainability of the legal
aid networks established under the grant depends on ongoing
support from the local authorities in each region. |
