Abstract

This article aims at establishing hypothesis-based suggestions in promoting government public policy toward Indonesian using indigenous language. This research was conducted descriptively to describe the phenomena found. The data were also obtained from libraries and related sources. The results of the study indicate that the rapid development of the Bahasa Indonesia does not necessarily eliminate the role of regional languages. This is because regional languages still have a vital function. The existence of regional languages makes it easy for the government to convey their policies, especially for people who still use regional languages. Therefore, it is important to always preserve regional languages.

Abstract

In addition to providing services such as public complaints, victim outreach, case management, temporary shelter, mediation, and victim support, the Women's Empowerment and Child Protection Service, Population Control and Family Planning (DP3AP2KB) is a government service unit that offers these services. Children and women who have Cimahi ID cards (or who are domiciled in Cimahi and/or who have experienced gender-based violence and have a Crime Scene (TKP) in the Cimahi City area are eligible to receive free integrated services. This is the mission of the organization. In addition to providing services for victims of physical, psychological, and sexual violence, the organization also provides services for victims of trafficking, pornography, bullying, child labor, and children who are in conflict with the law. The use of violence is one of the acts that constitutes a significant violation of human rights. Specifically, this is due to the fact that acts of violence never reflect the standards and values that are associated with human rights. Consequently, in order to achieve a deterrent effect, those who commit acts of violence should be punished as soon as possible. On purpose, individuals or organizations engage in acts of violence with the intention of oppressing those who are vulnerable in order to ensure that they continue to endure suffering. Depending on the circumstances, this violence may take the form of either physical or psychological aggression. When it comes to acts of physical violence, such as someone hitting or kicking another person, and so on. On the other hand, psychological violence includes things like coercing other people to do things that they do not enjoy. There are impacts that can be harmful to the victim that are associated with both forms. a. physical violence; b. sexual violence; c. economic violence; d. social violence; e. psychological violence; f. domestic neglect; and g. exploitation are all examples of distinct types of violence. Ascertaining the efficacy of the DP3AP2KB Program Service in dealing with acts of violence against women and children, determining how the program can function without any hiccups, identifying the programs that are available, and determining the role that human resources play in the DP3AP2KB program in dealing with acts of violence against women and children were the objectives of this study. Within the scope of this investigation, a qualitative descriptive methodology was utilized. The research was conducted using a qualitative methodology and a descriptive research type technique. The informants needed in this study are the DP3AP2KB office, victims of domestic violence and the community or fostered families of Cimahi City.

Abstract

The growing influence of environmentally conscious generations, particularly Generation Z, has become a pivotal area of research in the context of global sustainability. This study employs bibliometric analysis to systematically map the academic landscape surrounding this field, analyzing keywords, thematic clusters, and temporal trends from scholarly literature published between 2000 and 2023. The findings reveal that sustainability and environmental education are central themes, with strong connections to innovative approaches such as game-based learning and digital advocacy. Generation Z emerges as a key driver of environmental consciousness, leveraging digital platforms to amplify awareness and action. However, the analysis also identifies gaps, including the limited integration of technical solutions, such as renewable energy technologies, with behavioral and educational themes, and a lack of intersectional approaches to examining cultural and socioeconomic influences. This study underscores the need for interdisciplinary collaboration to advance the discourse on environmentally conscious generations and offers a roadmap for future research and practical applications in education, policy, and resource management.

Abstract

The growing prevalence of social media has sparked significant academic interest in understanding its impact on mental health. This bibliometric study explores the relationship between social media use and mental health within various socio-cultural contexts, highlighting prevailing themes, trends, and gaps in the literature. Using data from major academic databases, the study identified key research areas, including the association between social media and mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and addiction, as well as the role of interventions in mitigating these impacts. The findings reveal a strong focus on the negative effects of social media, particularly among adolescents and university students, and emphasize the importance of cultural factors in shaping these outcomes. While interventions and policy recommendations are increasingly being explored, gaps remain in understanding long-term effects, culturally diverse contexts, and potential positive outcomes of social media use. This study underscores the need for continued, multidisciplinary research to inform culturally sensitive practices and policies that address the complexities of social media's impact on mental health.

Abstract

Drug addiction poses a significant challenge to public health, social stability, and legal systems worldwide. This study examines Indonesia’s legal framework for drug rehabilitation through a juridical analysis and compares it with international best practices, focusing on Portugal and Switzerland. Findings reveal that while Indonesia’s Law No. 35 of 2009 on Narcotics incorporates rehabilitation, implementation gaps, inconsistent legal applications, and societal stigma hinder its effectiveness. Comparative analysis highlights the success of health-centered approaches and community-based programs in other countries. This paper underscores the importance of legal reforms, socio-cultural adaptability, and social engineering in enhancing drug rehabilitation policies in Indonesia. Recommendations include clearer legal guidelines, enhanced rehabilitation infrastructure, and public awareness initiatives to foster systemic change.
