Abstract

This article examines the changes and reconstruction of gender roles in Siri’ na Pacceculture, a tradition rich in cultural and social values, in the modern era. The research employs a qualitative approach using observation, interview and content analysis techniques to gain an in-depth understanding of how gender roles in Siri’ na Pacce Culture have transformed, as well as the challenges and opportunities it faces in the modern era. The results show that Siri’ na Pacce culture has undergone a process of gender role reconstruction influenced by various factors, including globalization, modernization, and evolving social dynamics. Although there have been significant changes in gender perceptions and practices, the tradition also faces challenges in maintaining its cultural values and norms amidst modernization. The study also identifies new opportunities that have emerged in the reconstruction of gender roles in Siri’ na Pacce culture, such as women’s active participation in traditional activities that were previously considered male-dominated, as well as the adoption of more inclusive and egalitarian gender values in society. As such, this article makes an important contribution to the understanding of the dynamics of gender roles in Siri’ na Pacce culture in the modern era, as well as highlighting the challenges and opportunities faced in the reconstruction process. The implications of these findings can guide efforts to preserve and develop sustainable and inclusive local cultures in the future.

Abstract

This study aims to describe why couples decide to have unmet needs and the impact on the family and the country of these decisions. The study used mixed methods. Qualitative, qualitative and secondary data analysis (quantitative). The results of the study High unmet need does not always lead to high fertility. Education, high female labor participation, and female empowerment are among the supporting factors. Independent women have a unique perspective in interpreting children. Women have the capacity to decide and analyze the presence of children. When a child is considered a burden on the family, it will be limited to have children. There's a group that identifies themselves as unmet need, but the TFR rate in a region remains stable. The willingness to spread children apart, or not have more children, and sexual intercourse without contraceptives have high no-birth outcomes. The conclusion is that not all unmet need contributes to a high TFR. Sexual intercourse without contraceptives, and still making TFR stable can be a new discourse for reproductive health issues of the people who use it.This study aims to describe why couples decide to have unmet needs and the impact on the family and the country of these decisions.

Abstract

This research explores the empowerment process for women former migrant workers through community-based education in the Desa Peduli Buruh Migran (DESBUMI) community in Jember Regency, Indonesia. It aims to examine community-based empowerment concepts and strategies to inform policies supporting women former migrant workers. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were gathered through observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation, followed by analysis through data reduction, presentation, and verification. The findings outline three empowerment stages: awareness, capacity building, and empowerment. In capacity building, an experiential learning cycle is used, tailored to the potential and needs of these women. Community interactions foster collective learning and mutual support, enhancing knowledge, skills, participation, and economic independence among former migrant workers. Additionally, the DESBUMI community provides a strategic platform for promoting local economic development. The research concludes that community-based education effectively strengthens both individual capacity and social networks, suggesting this model as a viable framework for empowering women in similar migrant worker communities across Indonesia.

Abstract

This study discussed the Rumah Kreatif Tamiang programme, which is a disability inclusion programme. This program has an ecosystem-based inclusion approach that focuses on stakeholders. This program is interesting because Law No. 8 of 2016 on disability has not been implemented, especially in Aceh Tamiang. This research is a qualitative study, data was obtained through library and internet research, observation and in-depth interviews with the program manager (CDO), disabled people who run the program, the community, social services, and café and workshop customers. This research found that the programme was designed and implemented with a professional approach to stakeholders based on ecosystems and local culture. This study contributes to strengthening mentoring and CSR theories that mentoring and CSR programmes need to be based on local needs and ecosystems with actor-centredness. Programmes can be replicated by other actors, especially businesses, government, universities and the general public.

Abstract

Context significantly influences the effectiveness of adolescent reproductive health (ARH) promotion. Successful efforts to improve ARH quality often overlook broader environmental factors, with local contexts frequently being the root causes. Understanding these contextual factors is crucial for effective improvements. This study aimed to explore ARH promotion based on the local knowledge of the Tengger people using a case study approach. Interviews were conducted with key stakeholders (n=2), parents (n=2), and adolescents (n=2). Results indicated that cultural and religious values are deeply integrated into ARH promotion. Four central foundations underpin these efforts: cultural identity, social control, harmony, and full participation. Cultural identity focuses on preserving and transmitting local traditions and values. Social control involves both structured community rules and unwritten norms that guide behavior. Harmony emphasizes maintaining balance and peace, crucial for collective well-being. Full participation ensures adolescents are engaged in community activities, fostering a sense of belonging and responsibility. These findings highlight the necessity of incorporating local cultural into ARH initiatives to enhance effectiveness. Aligning ARH promotion with the values and practices of the Tengger people can lead to better acceptance and sustainability of programs.

Abstract

This article examines the reconstruction of stakeholder confidence in the collaborative governance process for the sustainability of child-friendly cities in new industrial communities. Research problems are due to the implications of the growth of new industrial societies, differences and conflicts of interest between stakeholders, child growth and development problems, high stunting, juvenile delinquency, street children, and parenting patterns that are not by needs. This study aims to analyze the reconstruction of stakeholder trust in creating awareness and shared commitment to collaborative governance processes to realize the sustainability of child-friendly cities. The research method is qualitative, research data is collected through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions (FGD). The results of the study show that collaborative governance processes are faced with different interest gaps that result in a lack of trust and commitment to realizing a child-friendly city. A joint forum among stakeholders in the child-friendliness campaign efforts has been organized but shows no signs of effectiveness. The lack of synergy between local governments and industry players is present, therefore efforts to rebuild trust in realizing the sustainability of a child-friendly environment need to be optimized through communication, openness, social responsibility, and supervision of local governments.
