Background
UN Women, grounded in
the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works
for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment
of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and
beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and
security.
UN
Women’s goal in Indonesia is to promote the rights of women and ensure
inclusion of women’s participation and leadership as the country works towards sustaining
and furthering achievements in stability and development. In this regard, its
programming in the country is connected to its five corporate priority areas:
increasing women’s leadership and participation; ending violence against women;
engaging women in all aspects of peace and security processes; enhancing
women’s economic empowerment; and making gender equality central to national
development planning and budgeting. UN Women also coordinates and promotes the
UN system’s work in advancing gender equality.
Indonesia
has made great strides in establishing national gender equality commitments,
such as its ratification of the Convention for the Elimination of All Forms of
Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) by Law 7/1984. A quota of 30 percent women as candidates for membership in
national, provincial and local parliament and in party candidates lists are
stipulated by Law No 12/2003 on General Elections and Law No. 10/2008
respectively.
Significant
progress has been made to respond to violence against women after the 1998
reform. A national Commission on Violence against Women (Komnas Perempuan) was
established in the same year. The Ministry of Women’s Empowerment has initiated
the establishment of district based integrated women’s crisis center called
P2TP2A since 2002. Through
years of advocacy by the women’s movement and other advocates led to the
adoption of the Law No 23. On Elimination of Domestic Violence in 2004.
UN Women Indonesia will provide support to the Government and civil society
partners to strengthen coordinated implementation, monitoring and evaluation of
the Law on Elimination of Domestic Violence and is investing in efforts to stop
violence before it begins. This will focus around schools using a whole-of-society
approach to prevention. The CO will design and implement a pilot school-based
intervention on the prevention of violence against women and girls, that

to design a pilot prevention[1]
