Abstract

Following Security Council Resolution 1325 (2000), the United Nations arranged mandates on women, peace and security (WPS) in order to address the equality between men and women, in order to allow them to actively participate in managing world security and peace. The purpose of this mandate was to give women the same opportunities, protection, access to resources and services, as well as right to participation in decision-making, as an attempt to achieve and sustain peace and security. In 2014, women constituted 3% of the UN’s military personnel and 10% of the police personnel out of the total number of UN peacekeepers from 123 countries, including Indonesia. In Lebanon, one of the areas focused on by UN peacekeeping missions, Indonesia currently deploys the largest peacekeeping personnel of up to 1,296 individuals, of which 24 are women. This number constitutes 5% of Indonesia’s total peacekeepers on the UN’s mission. Using the qualitative approach method through collecting secondary data, this paper aims to examine the participation of Indonesian women peacekeepers, particularly in UNIFIL, in relation to helping, protecting and supporting women and girls as the victims of war based on the feminist point of view. It was found that Indonesian women peacekeepers provide a tremendous contribution to the effectiveness of the UN’s peacekeeping operations. Women can provide softer approaches toward war victims and help to promote peace in the region. This shows that women still have not had much opportunity to prove their abilities in battle. Therefore, improvement is needed in order to increase the Indonesian women’s peacekeeper role in peacekeeping operations.

Abstract

Based on OECD data in 2019, Japan made India the first largest recipient of Japanese Official Development Assistance (ODA) in the world. This priority shows that for Japan, India is a very strategic country, causing Japan to give great priority to India. Moreover, many academics tend to view Japan as providing ODA assistance because Japan has political, economic, and other interests. However, this study attempts to use a constructivist perspective, which is a perspective that tends to look at the intrinsic values, such as the role of identity. Based on this research, the authors argue that Japan gives high priority  Japan's ODA assistance to India for several reasons. The first reason is that Japan wants to strengthen its role identity as a country that cares about development in developing countries. This has resulted in Japan trying to be very active in providing ODA assistance so that development conditions, especially in the economic sector in India, are getting better. Furthermore, the second reason, Japan provided Japanese ODA assistance to India because Japan’s view  is Japan had the same collective identity as India. Japan and India have a collective identity as countries that adhere to an open economy and as countries that want to have a big role in economic development in the Indo-Pacific region.
