ENSURING THE INDEPENDENCE OF THE
UN*S INTERNAL JUSTICE SYSTEM
The Office of Administration of Justice (OAJ) is an independent office, based in New York, responsible for the overall coordination of the formal components of the UN*s internal justice system. It is headed by an Executive Director appointed by the Secretary-General. OAJ was established at the outset of the system with the rationale that a separate Office of Administration of Justice, with operational and budgetary autonomy, would ensure the institutional independence of the system of internal justice.
※I am committed to supporting a well-functioning internal justice system that management and staff believe in, and that helps the Organization fulfill its promise to the peoples of the world.§
— Alayne Frankson-Wallace, Executive Director
Office of Administration of Justice (OAJ)
