Coalition for an Independent and Transparent Judiciary

Coalition Activity 5 August 2014

Coalition for an Independent and Transparent Judiciary was formed in April 2011, with 31 member NGOs. The goal of the coalition is to strengthen the capacity of legal professional associations, legal rights NGOs, business associations, and the media in monitoring relevant judicial practices and advocating for an independent judiciary. USAID’s project is being implemented by the Eurasia Partnership Foundation through a partnership with the East-West Management Institute.

 

Since July 2015 IDFI was elected as a member of the Steering Committe of the Coalition.
