Abstract

This study aims to analyze the correlation between the principle of equality before the law and the affirmative action policy, which is expressed in the form of a 30% quota for women's representation in the political field, as stipulated in Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections. The focus of the study is directed at the extent to which this quota policy is in line with the principle of equality before the law and reflects substantive justice in democratic practices in Indonesia. The research method used is normative research by examining laws and regulations, legal doctrine, and relevant literature. This approach is used to assess whether the quota policy for women's representation is in accordance with the constitutional principle of equality, while also considering the challenges of its implementation in a socio-political context that is still gender biased. The results of the study indicate that the 30% quota for women in legislative candidacy is a form of positive discrimination intended to correct structural and historical inequalities in women's political participation. This policy is expected to open wider spaces for participation so that women have equal opportunities to play a role in the legislative process and public policy making. However, this policy has also drawn criticism. Some believe that the quota emphasizes fulfilling numbers rather than the quality and capacity of the individuals nominated. Therefore, the quota must be accompanied by efforts to improve the quality of women's human resources, political education, and transparent, merit-based selection mechanisms. This way, women's representation will not only be formal but also substantial and contribute significantly to democratic development. In conclusion, the 30% quota policy remains necessary as an affirmative step toward de facto equality. However, strengthening capacity and supporting systems is crucial for its implementation to align with the principle of equality before the law and achieve substantive justice.

Abstract

Coral reef degradation in the coastal areas of the Aru Islands due to overexploitation and coastal waste pollution has become an urgent environmental issue that requires innovative and participatory approaches. This community service activity was conducted from February to March 2026, with the peak activity on April 1, 2026, at Wangel Beach, Aru Islands Regency. The purpose of this activity was to enhance the knowledge and skills of coastal communities in coral reef restoration through training and the implementation of Bioreeftek techniques based on the utilization of coastal waste. The methods employed included a socialization program themed “Save the Reefs, Secure Aru’s Future,” online training on Bioreeftek media preparation, and direct practice in constructing and deploying the media in coastal waters. The activity involved approximately 50 participants, including coastal residents, youth groups, and local fishermen. The results indicated an improvement in community understanding and skills in processing coastal waste into environmentally friendly coral transplantation media. A total of four Bioreeftek units were successfully constructed and deployed in waters with potential as snorkeling tourism sites. This activity demonstrates that Bioreeftek is an effective innovation for coral reef restoration as well as a strategy for community empowerment. Therefore, this approach is important to be developed as a sustainable model for coastal ecosystem conservation.

Abstract

Southwest Papua is a region rich in natural resources, such as forests, seas, and minerals. For indigenous communities, these resources are not merely economic commodities but also part of their social and spiritual identity. In practice, the state often grants management permits to companies without considering the customary rights of indigenous communities. This situation not only demonstrates the weak implementation of the norms in the 1945 Constitution but also reveals an imbalance in the power relations between the state, corporations, and indigenous communities. When business permits are granted without thorough verification of the existence of indigenous territories, the state indirectly negates the collective rights of indigenous communities. In many cases, areas traditionally managed by indigenous communities are categorized as state land, thus opening up legal space for granting concessions to third parties. As a result, indigenous communities lose control over their own living space, both economically, socially, and culturally. This practice also demonstrates the state's tendency to prioritize an investment-based development approach over protecting indigenous peoples' rights. A development paradigm oriented toward economic growth often positions land and natural resources as commodities, rather than as part of the identity and survival of indigenous communities. This creates a tension between development interests and social justice.
