Abstract

The victims of commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC) -especially girls- both in Jakarta - and Lombok area are having unique characteristic of vulnerability, therefore in order to optimize supporting the victims, an understanding of these characteristics of vulnerability in both areas are required. The purpose of this article is to describe and analyze the implementation of Down to Zero Project conducted by Plan International Indonesia (PII) in North Jakarta, East Jakarta, West Lombok, and Central Lombok. By conducting desk review of documents and results of previous studies during the implementation of this project, this study argues that; first, on the one side, the vulnerability of CSEC victims in Lombok areas tends to have a relation with poverty, furthermore the strict norms and value of custom could be challenging. On the other side, ineffective protection from family or caregiver makes a huge challenge for CSEC victims in the Jakarta area, in addition a heterogenous society and individualist characters create ineffective social protection for them. Secondly, these differences showed that the existing child protection system for girl victims of CSEC is not fully able to support them to reach the quality of life.

Abstract

Seen as a breakthrough in protecting migrant workers, of whom are predominantly female, Law No. 18/2017 on the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers (The Migrant Workers Act of 2017), replacing Law No. 39/2004, is not void of imperfections. Prima facie, the act may be seen as progressive development in protecting Indonesian migrant workers, having embraced the many experiences and realities their profession entails. However, upon investigating the Act under the careful lens of Feminist Jurisprudence as well as other national legal instruments for gender equality, the Migrant Workers Act of 2017 still provides unsatisfactory details in regardsto the protection of female workers; if the government does not quickly act by making corresponding regulations, the Act will in fact, introduce us to new problems from what was seen as a one-size fits all solution. In its implementation, legal literacy becomes one ofthe most profound challenges the 2017 Act faces. Field research findings in three areas (Sukabumi, Lampung, and Jakarta) show that legal literacy on this Act remains sparse. This article will address problems in regards to the 2017 Act, its implementation, and solutionsto develop more tangible legal instruments in protecting Indonesian migrant workers, in particular, women, who, in foreign lands, often face the risk of violence and abuse on a daily basis with little to no protection.

Abstract

Researches related to Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) show that challenges faced by girls related to MHM in schools, such as lack of MHM facilities and information including negative stigma, potentially decrease the fulfillment of girls’ rights to proper education. However, there is no study in Indonesia to explore the implementation of the Menstrual Hygiene Management (MKM) program in schools from the perspective of children’s rights. Therefore, this study examined the implementation of the MHM from thechildren’s rights perspective and explored the importance of affirmative action towards MHM for girls. This research was conducted qualitatively in March 2018, in the West Jakarta Municipality (DKI Jakarta), Nagekeo District (NTT), and North Lombok District (NTB), one elementary school and one middle school in each regency/city, there were a total of six schools.

Abstract

Various data from the society show the tendency of increasing number of incest’s cases. This study aims to analyze the narratives of five cases of fathers who become perpetrators of incest. This study was conducted in 2016 to five fathers of incestuous perpetrators, who inhabited two Correctional Institutions in Bengkulu. This study was conducted using feminist narrative analysis and found that incestuous perpetrators rationalize their crimes based on their sexual identity and history to the victim. The history of the victims’ sexuality, which represents corrupted, dirty, wild, and naughty bodies, became a justification for incest. Persons with disabilities faced multiple vulnerabilities, not only being humiliated through the rape by their fathers, but they were also being blamed for their inability to participate in the investigation process and court hearings. The research has found linkages between incest and early marriage, troubled marriages, and early divorce. The construction of hypersexuality and the objectification of the perpetrators towards child sexuality had failed to guide the perpetrators towards a sane relationship.

Abstract

Sexual violence on campus is a crime against humanity that is difficult to uncover because of professors’ power relations and domination over students. Power relations also manifest at the structural level so that sexual violence is often dismissed and silenced by the administrators. The campus environment’s hierarchy of status and positions makes sexual crime cases go on for years without any accountability. On the other hand, there are efforts such as the collective action of lecturers across faculties to protect victims from the perpetrators and bring the perpetrators to justice. This study describes the author’s experience in dealing with sexual violence on campus and using a reflexive approach in addressing sexual violence in Indonesia.

Abstract

This article is using a critical interpretation based on radical feminist theory to analyze the issue of sexual violence against women in Indonesia. Based on data from Komnas Perempuan in 2020, the number of victims of sexual violence is increasing. The root of sexual violence comes from the biological differences between women and men that has been constructed in society. Men are considered to have sexual dominance on women. The existence of sexual politics maintains by the state have taken away women’s authority both in private and public spheres. Using the critical and praxis feminist approach, this article assesses the data research from Komnas Perempuan, especially related to cases of sexual violence. The analysis and criticism of sexual politics in this article also highlights the Draft Law on the Elimination of Sexual Violence. The analysis proves the importance of state involvement in ensuring the lives of Indonesian female citizens, especially concerning protection from sexual violence.

Abstract

The Indonesian Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK in Indonesian) was established based on Law No.13/2006 Protection of Witness and Victims, which was later amended by Law No 31/2014. It is an independent non-structural agency headed by seven commissioners for 5-year terms. One of the Agency’s priority crimes is sexual violence. The Agency protects witnesses, victims, whistleblowers, justice collaborators, and experts. For the years 2019-May 2021, the Agency has given protection to a total of 984 victims of sexual crimes, consisting of 67 percent children and 33 percent adults. Out of that, 78 percent are female victims compared to 22 percent male victims. Based on Law No. 31/2014, there are 16 types of witness and victims’ rights. The three most sought-after protection programs for victims of sexual violence are Procedural Rights, Psychological Rehabilitation, and Restitution Facilitation. For prevention programs, we need to learn who are sexual violence perpetrators.

Abstract

This article discusses about the corrective rape against lesbian, bisexual (women), and male transgender that is performed by the perpetrator with aim to correct the LBT’s (lesbian, bisexual, and transgender) sexuality. Such sexuality that are deemed bad, abnormal and cursed, therefore must be corrected. Corrective rape is perceived as a form of punishment, and it is everyone’s responsibility to undertake correction. Corrective rape has rarely been revealed. In order to reveal the facts about corrective rape against LBT in Indonesia, this article writes the stories of four LBTs that would open up our conscience, that any form of corrective rape must be abolished, in line with our hope to abolish sexual violence against women through the legislating of the draft law on the abolition of sexual violence (RUU PKS).
