Abstract

This paper identifies the dramatic growth in legal and judicial reform across the world of international development assistance, and assesses the particular experience of measuring performance in a substantial reform programme in Papua New Guinea (PNG). The paper provides the case study of building capacity to monitor and evaluate legal and judicial reform in the development context. It offers some fundamental lessons for donors from the initial five years of practice which relate to strategic capacity, incentives, sustainability, resources, timeframe and design approach. Cet article identifie un accroissement important de la réforme juridique et judiciaire dans la sphère de l'aide internationale au développement. Il évalue l'expérience bien particulière qui a consisté à mesurer la performance dans le cadre d'un important programme de réformes en Papouasie-Nouvelle-Guinée (PNG). L'article propose une étude de cas sur le renforcement des capacités pour faire le suivi et évaluer la réforme juridique et judiciaire dans le contexte du développement. Tiré de cinq années de pratiques, il adresse quelques leçons importantes aux donateurs relatives aux capacités stratégiques, aux motivations, à la durabilité, aux ressources, aux contraintes temporelles et aux buts poursuivis
