Abstract

This community service program aimed to strengthen grassroots legal awareness by enhancing the capacity of women leaders in the 'Aisyiyah Branch Leadership (PCA) Rungkut, Surabaya, through structured paralegal training. The program utilized the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach and consisted of participatory sessions on basic legal knowledge, human rights, and advocacy skills. A total of 30 participants engaged in a three-session training, with evaluation conducted through post-tests and qualitative reflection. The results showed a substantial improvement in legal understanding. Participants also demonstrated growing confidence and critical awareness of legal rights and responsibilities. Qualitative findings revealed a shift in perception, as participants began to see themselves as legal actors capable of community advocacy. Post-training will initiatives included the formation of a cross-sector paralegal network and the establishment of a community legal aid post (Posbakum) in the PCA Rungkut area. This initiative contributed to the realization of the Qoryah Thayyibah Village model as a justice-oriented, legally aware community. The program illustrates how faith-based women’s organizations can serve as effective drivers of grassroots legal empowerment and access to justice.

Abstract

International law functions as a foundation for relations between states and international organizations, and regulates various global issues such as human rights, peace and security. Indonesia, as the country with the fourth largest population and one of the main regional powers in Southeast Asia, plays a significant role in the development of international law. This legal writing focuses on the issue of the extent of Indonesia's contribution in participating in international organizations, and its role in drafting and implementing international legal norms. Indonesia has made many contributions to the international arena, namely in forming international agreements and global conventions, such as the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS 1982) and the Kyoto Protocol. The legal writing method used is legal normative, with a conceptual approach and case approach. The legal materials used are primary legal materials, secondary legal materials and tertiary legal materials. The results of this legal writing provide an answer that Indonesia has also implemented international legal norms into its national law and Indonesia's position or role in various international activities has been taken into account. This shows that Indonesia not only functions as an active participant in international policy making, but also as a driver of significant change in advancing the principles of international law. This contribution not only strengthens Indonesia's position on the global stage but also helps shape a fairer and more inclusive international legal order.

Abstract

Abstract Categorizing terrorism as an international crime is not wrong, because the international elements of the crime have been fulfilled. Terrorist crimes involve more than one state, each possessing its own legal system and jurisdictional framework. A number of terrorist acts have been recorded as having disrupted international security stability, including those carried out by networks such as Al-Qaeda, ISIS, and others. In addition to these global terrorist groups, there are also well-known terrorist groups in the Southeast Asian region, namely the Abu Sayyaf Group. This legal research aims to examine universal jurisdiction over terrorism as an international crime, on the basis that terrorist acts may be considered to satisfy the elements of crimes against humanity, insofar as such acts are intentionally committed as part of a widespread attack, involve multiple actors, and target civilian populations at large. This research employs a qualitative normative legal method, utilizing a statute approach and a case approach, and drawing upon primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The findings indicate that the formulation of crimes against humanity constitutes the most appropriate legal basis for prosecuting terrorism under the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court (ICC). The absence of a universally accepted definition of terrorism has resulted in terrorism not yet being included within the jurisdiction of the ICC. Furthermore, the failure at the regional level to effectively resolve issues related to terrorism underscores the need for a universally agreed definition of terrorism so that perpetrators may be prosecuted before international courts. Strengthened cooperation among states, both at the regional and global levels, is therefore necessary to ensure the effective eradication of terrorist crimes. Abstrak Mengkategorikan terorisme sebagai kejahatan internasional tidaklah salah, karena unsur-unsur internasional dari kejahatan tersebut telah terpenuhi. Dimana kejahatan terorisme melibatkan lebih dari satu negara yang di dalamnya terdapat sistem hukum dan penerapan yurisdiksi. Beberapa tindakan terorisme telah tercatat mengganggu stabilitas keamanan internasional, termasuk jaringan Al-Qaeda, ISIS dan sebagainya. Selain kelompok teroris di dunia, terdapat pula kelompok teroris yang cukup terkenal di kawasan Asia Tenggara, yaitu Kelompok Abu Sayyaf. Penelitian hukum ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji yurisdiksi universal terorisme sebagai kejahatan internasional, karena kejahatan terorisme dapat dikatakan memenuhi unsur-unsur kejahatan terhadap kemanusiaan, yang mana tindakan dilakukan dengan sengaja sebagai bagian dari serangan yang meluas, melibatkan banyak pihak dan menargetkan semua warga negara. Penelitian hukum ini menggunakan metode normatif kualitatif, dengan statute approach dan case approach, serta bahan hukum yang digunakan yaitu bahan hukum primer, sekunder dan tersier. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pelanggaran kejahatan terhadap kemanusiaan dianggap sebagai formulasi yang paling tepat untuk mengadili kejahatan terorisme di bawah yurisdiksi ICC. Ketiadaan definisi terorisme yang universal menyebabkan hingga saat ini terorisme belum masuk dalam yurisdiksi ICC. Kegagalan di level regional untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan terorisme sehingga diperlukan kesepakatan definisi terorisme secara universal sehingga para pelaku kejahatan tersebut dapat di adili dalam peradilan internasional. Perlunya penguatan kerjasama antar negara baik di level regional maupun global agar pemberantasan kejahatan terorisme dapat maksimal.
