Gender-based violence against women remains a complex public policy issue that requires integrated governance involving multiple stakeholders across government institutions, law enforcement agencies, healthcare providers, legal aid organizations, and civil society. This study aims to analyze the application of collaborative governance in women's protection policy, with Banjarmasin City serving as the contextual focus, through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR). The review was conducted by systematically identifying, selecting, and synthesizing relevant literature retrieved from Google Scholar, Scopus, and ScienceDirect, as well as academic books, research reports, and policy documents, following the principles of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). The findings indicate that the effectiveness of women's protection policies is influenced by five key dimensions of collaborative governance: starting conditions, institutional design, collaborative processes, capacity for joint action, and network governance. The reviewed literature further highlights persistent challenges in local policy implementation, including weak inter-agency coordination, fragmented referral systems, limited institutional resources, and insufficient stakeholder participation. Within the context of Banjarmasin, the establishment of integrated service institutions such as the Regional Office for Women's Empowerment and Child Protection (DP3A) and the Integrated Service Unit for Women and Children Protection (UPTD PPA) reflects ongoing efforts to strengthen collaborative governance in women's protection. The study concludes that enhancing collaborative leadership, institutional coordination, integrated information systems, and organizational capacity is essential to improving the effectiveness and sustainability of women's protection policies. These findings provide a conceptual synthesis that contributes to the development of collaborative governance studies and offers practical implications for strengthening women's protection systems at the local government level.
