<![CDATA[Violence against women is a multidimensional human rights issue that requires comprehensive legal, institutional, and social responses. This study examines the legal protection of women from violence in Indonesia, focusing on the normative framework, implementation challenges, and efforts to strengthen protection mechanisms. This research employs a normative juridical method with a qualitative approach, utilizing statutory, conceptual, and case approaches. Legal materials consist of primary, secondary, and tertiary sources collected through library research and analyzed descriptively and analytically. The findings indicate that Indonesia has established a relatively comprehensive legal framework through Law No. 23 of 2004 on the Elimination of Domestic Violence, Law No. 12 of 2022 on Sexual Violence Crimes, Law No. 31 of 2014 on Witness and Victim Protection, and the ratification of CEDAW. However, significant gaps remain between normative provisions and their implementation, particularly regarding gender-sensitive law enforcement, victim assistance, interinstitutional coordination, and socio-cultural barriers. Strengthening legal protection therefore requires improved institutional capacity, integrated victim services, gender-responsive law enforcement, reliable data systems, and sustained public education to ensure substantive protection of women's rights]]>
