Actions
While the principle focus of USAID’s efforts in the ROL area should be on supporting
the Government of Ukraine to design, adopt and implement reforms, USAID should
simultaneously intensify efforts to support the “demand” side of reform. In fact, if there
is a long delay or only limited success in the public policy dimension, then the demandrealization
dimension should focus primarily on advocacy for reform. In that case, the
program will look similar to previous USAID programs. However, assuming that there is
sufficient political will for reform and demonstrated progress in that area, this dimension
should build on previous activities that support(ed) advocacy, monitoring, legal aid, and
public education. New activities will likely focus on three areas: Access to Justice;
Participation and Government Accountability; and Legal Education.
