This study analyzes the normative construction of criminal law policy in protecting women and vulnerable groups and formulates Ruang Bersama Indonesia as an integrative model of penal and non-penal policy, rather than as a new criminal law regime. This study employs a normative legal research method using statutory and conceptual approaches. The findings indicate that protection has developed through the principles of non-discrimination, victim protection, recognition of power relations, accessibility, reasonable accommodation for persons with disabilities, restitution, compensation, and recovery; however, these standards remain dispersed across various legal instruments and have not yet been fully connected operationally. The proposed Ruang Bersama Indonesia model places substantive justice as its objective, while legality, attribution of authority, human rights, and due process of law serve as boundaries, with gender perspectives and intersectionality as analytical foundations. Ruang Bersama Indonesia functions as a hub for prevention, information, initial assessment, assistance, and referral; meanwhile, investigative, prosecutorial, adjudicative, and professional service authorities remain with legally authorized institutions. This model requires vulnerability assessment standards, referral protocols, data protection mechanisms, institutional coordination, and measurable evaluation indicators.
