Abstract

Women with disabilities are a minority group vulnerable to various forms of violence and discrimination, including physical, psychological, and exploitation. This vulnerability is exacerbated by stigma and the assumption of inability to defend oneself, especially for those with mental and intellectual disabilities. Women with disabilities also face discrimination in the investigation and judicial processes, as well as difficulties in accessing information, legal services, and disability-friendly judicial facilities. Although the 1945 Constitution guarantees equality before the law and Law No. 8 of 2016 recognizes the legal capacity of persons with disabilities, its implementation has not been optimal, including in procedural law. The research method used is the normative juridical method, which refers to Law Number 8 of 2016 concerning Persons with Disabilities and Government Regulation No. 39 of 2020 concerning Reasonable Accommodation for Persons with Disabilities in the Judicial Process. The high rate of violence against disabled groups is exacerbated by systemic barriers such as the lack of physical accessibility, information, and inclusive judicial procedures; discrimination and negative stereotypes; and the limited understanding of law enforcement officials. Even though there are laws at both international and national levels, the protection for people with disabilities hasn't been very effective because of inconsistent rules and the way Government Regulation No. 39/2020 focuses too little on inclusive procedural law.
