The purpose of Public Accountability and Justice Strengthening Activity (PAJ) is to support Jordanian efforts to enhance accountability systems, procedures, and mechanisms within the government of Jordan and judicial institutions and enhance their ability to serve and communicate effectively with the public. It also fosters awareness and pressure by civil society organizations, the public, and the private sector on the government’s adherence to the law and its international commitments to govern in an accountable manner that safeguards the rights of vulnerable populations. PAJ is supporting Jordan’s Civil Service Bureau (CSB) to establish a government competencies assessment center that helps in achieving the competency based human resources management in civil service as per the Public Modernization roadmap, and the transformation of CSB role to become Service and Public Administration Commission (SPAC), in addition to the HR strategy in civil service.
