Building on the successes of previous Australian law and justice programs, AIPJ focuses on the following rights:- Legal identity (birth, marriage and divorce certificates) as one precondition to realising basic economic and social rights, such as education and health care.
- The right to fair proceedings which are:
- independent and impartial
- fast and consistent, affordable, and accessible.
- The right to (legal) information.
- Judicial dispute resolution mechanisms

- Anti-corruption
