<![CDATA[The goals of Law Number 23 of 2004 about the Elimination of Domestic Violence (PKDRT) and Law Number 35 of 2014 concerning Child Protection are to protect children from various forms of violence and to ensure their rights, including sexual violence, both in educational environments, society, and in the household. This study examines the provisions in both laws that specifically regulate the protection of children from sexual violence, including children's rights to a safe environment, state obligations in preventing and handling cases, and legal sanctions against perpetrators. The Child Protection Law affirms children's rights to receive protection from sexual crimes through articles that regulate education, rehabilitation, psychosocial assistance, and a fair legal process for victims, While the PKDRT Law offers a strong legal foundation for safeguarding children from domestic abuse, it also imposes severe penalties on those who engage in sexual violence against minors. Although these regulations have provided strong legal protection, their implementation still faces challenges, such as low reporting rates due to social and economic factors, lack of public awareness, and limitations in law enforcement. Therefore, this study emphasizes the importance of concrete steps in increasing the effectiveness of child protection from sexual violence, such as strengthening prevention policies, providing assistance services for victims, and more optimal law enforcement to create a safe and violence-free environment for children.]]>
