Internal Announcement
09 April 2013
Deutsche Gesellschaft fuer Internationale
Zusammenarbeit (GIZ)GmbH is a German international cooperation enterprise for
sustainable development with worldwide operations.
Women rights have been guaranteed by the Indonesian Constitution, through ratification of the international
Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women as
well as other laws such as the law against domestic violence. In addition, a Presidential Decree in 2000 made gender mainstreaming mandatory in all government policies
and programs. Following the issuing of Presidential Decree, gender equality is
also considered as one aspect in the vision of Indonesia’s Government Long Term
Planning 2005 – 2025. Furthermore, gender mainstreaming is one of the
three mainstreaming principles in National Medium Term Planning 2010 - 2014.
Therefore, various efforts have been made to ensure women’s rights and gender
equality as integrated parts of governments’ policies and programs at all
levels.
Despite this, Indonesia is facing significant challenges from
ensuring equal rights for men and women. The country’s
extraordinary sociocultural diversity is a particular barrier to promoting
equal rights. Indonesia’s patriarchal system of values ascribes a traditional
role to womenand men, and the rigidity of gender roles within the country’s
250-plus ethnic groups varies widely.
The diversity of national laws andinterpretations of religious principles along withthe role of custom and practice make it difficult to enforce women’s
rights. Moreover, national marriage legislationwhich is partly influenced by interpretations
of religious principles are contradictory to the
principle of equality in rights an dignity. Discrimination, including the use
of violence, often remains hidden because women are frequently unaware of their
rights. GIZ-Strengthening Women’s
Rights (SWR) is
