Abstract

This research was motivated by the rampant phenomenon of early marriage in Indonesia, which has become a complex and controversial social issue. Early marriage was always associated with beliefs and traditions in a region with diverse cultures and religions. This study analyzes efforts to prevent early marriage in Mekarmanik Village, Cimenyan District, Bandung Regency through women's empowerment. The program used is the Balai Prima girls’ school, which provides non-formal education for adolescent girls aged 13-18 years. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method, focusing on data collection and analysis, to shed light on the phenomenon of early marriage in local social, cultural, and economic contexts. The results show that non-formal education and women's empowerment can increase awareness about women's rights and the risks of early marriage, as well as provide practical skills that aid decision-making. The implementation of this program is in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially in terms of gender equality and improving the quality of education. Therefore, it is important to address early marriage, which involves education, empowerment, and social change.

Abstract

Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a debated practice in Indonesia, from religious, health and legal perspectives. This study aims to explore the views of religious leaders and medical professionals on the practice of female circumcision, and examine its compatibility with Islamic teachings, medical standards, and applicable regulations. This study used a qualitative approach with a semi-structured interview method involving five resource persons from among religious leaders and health professionals in the Sumedang area. Analysis was conducted using a thematic approach to identify patterns and views that emerged. The results showed that some religious leaders still view female circumcision as a sunnah action, but do not require its implementation, especially if it can cause harm. Meanwhile, from a medical perspective, this practice is considered to have no health benefits and can actually cause physical and psychological harm. The practice is also considered contrary to children's rights and is no longer legally recommended in Indonesia. This study concludes that there is a need for comprehensive education and collaboration between religious leaders, medical personnel, and policy makers to gradually prevent the practice of female circumcision through an approach based on religious values, health protection, and children's rights.
