Abstract

Gender equality and forms of gender inequality that still occur in various parts of the world. Gender equality refers to the equal rights, opportunities, and treatment of women and men in all aspects of life, regardless of gender. The goal is to create a just and equitable society where everyone can reach their full potential. However, reality shows that gender inequality remains a serious problem. Forms of gender inequality include discrimination in access to education, gaps in the workplace, gender-based violence, gender stereotypes, and double burdens for women. Discrimination in education can limit women’s access to quality education, while gaps in the workplace result in differences in pay and promotion opportunities for women. Gender-based violence, such as domestic violence and sexual harassment, is a serious violation of women’s human rights. Gender stereotypes that reduce women’s roles and abilities can also limit their opportunities. The double burden borne by women, namely working outside the home and taking care of household chores, can lead to fatigue and a lack of time for self-development. To achieve gender equality, a collective effort is needed from various parties, such as the government, society, and individuals. These efforts include the elimination of discrimination, law enforcement, education about gender equality, and cultural changes that support equality. By understanding and addressing forms of gender inequality, we can build a just and equitable society for women and men.

Abstract

Ideally, participatory democracy positions citizens as active subjects in the formation of regional regulations through the representative role of the Regional People’s Representative Council (DPRD) as a local legislative body. In practice, however, public participation in regional law-making remains largely procedural, elitist, and insufficiently influential on the substantive orientation of regional legal politics. This condition creates a gap between the normative ideals of local democracy and the empirical reality of adaptive and responsive local governance. This study aims to analyze the constitutional role of the DPRD within the political framework of regional legislation and to assess the extent to which the institutionalization of public participation contributes to the quality of regional regulations. This article employs normative legal research using a qualitative approach, combining the statute approach and the conceptual approach. The data are derived from primary and secondary legal materials and analyzed through descriptive-analytical methods. The findings demonstrate that strengthening the deliberative function of the DPRD and embedding substantive public participation mechanisms are essential to producing legitimate, adaptive, and socially responsive regional legislation in a dynamic democratic context.
