“…In all sites, including studies that took place in other countries, perpetration was associated with gender inequality and was measured by controlling behavior by men and sexual practices that objectify women. Other investigators in Indonesia reported similar findings in smaller localized studies (Diarsvitri et al, 2011; Hayati, Emmelin, & Eriksson, 2014; Nilan, Demartoto, Broom, & Germov, 2014; Rowe, FakihSutan, & Dulka, 2006; Syukur & Bagshaw, 2013).…”

There has been relatively little research into the prevalence of childhood sexual violence (CSV) as well as the risk and protective factors for CSV in low- and middle-income countries including Indonesia. Systematic searches conducted in English and Bahasa Indonesia in this review identified 594 records published between 2006 and 2016 in peer-reviewed journals and other literature including 299 Indonesian records. Fifteen studies, including nine prevalence studies, met the quality appraisal criteria developed for this review. The review found that CSV research is scarce: Only one study included nationally representative prevalence estimates. Varying definitions for CSV, survey methods, and sample characteristics limited the generalizability of the data. The available evidence points to significant risk of sexual violence affecting both girls and boys across many geographical and institutional settings. Married adolescent girls are vulnerable to sexual violence by partners in their homes. Children in schools are vulnerable to CSV by peers and adults. Victims seldom disclose incidents and rarely seek support. In addition, early childhood experiences of trauma were strongly associated with later perpetration of sexual violence and revictimization. Limited information is available about protective factors. This review synthesizes evidence about what is currently known about CSV in Indonesia and identifies the strengths and weaknesses of the existing research. A more robust evidence base regarding CSV is required to better inform policy and justify investment into prevention programs.

However, little is known about CSV in low-and middle-income countries. Indonesia has the largest Muslim population in the world and is home to almost 90 million children. To date, there is limited data from this vast country about the nature of CSV, including the prevalence, associated risks, and protective factors. Available data is of mixed quality and inadequate to inform policy. This research has three aims: i) to collect and review available data about CSV in Indonesia; ii) to analyse the lessons learned from existing efforts to research CSV in Indonesia, with specific reference to Indonesia's recent population survey on childhood violence Challenges to researching childhood sexual violence in Indonesia iii Results: The first phase of the research, the systematic literature review, found that the available data provides an inadequate picture of CSV in Indonesia. Prior studies have generally been small in scale and unrepresentative. Previous efforts to collect survey data on childhood violence lack validity or sufficient information to inform response efforts. Prevalence estimates vary widely, depending on the definition and methodology used. Despite the heterogeneity of the studies identified in the review, several patterns emerged. Available research points to a significant, but underreported problem particularly affecting adolescent girls in relationships.Exposure to childhood violence (including harsh parenting and witnessing domestic violence) is strongly associated with re-victimisation and perpetration in adulthood. Few child victims disclose incidents or seek support. There is limited data about risk and protective factors available across the life course, while no data is available about sexual violence in early childhood. The varied quality of the studies included in the review highlight the need for urgent investment in national capacity to conduct qualitative and quantitative research on childhood violence, including sexual violence, in Indonesia to better inform policy and prevention programs, and to justify increased investment into services for child victims (Rumble, Febrianto, et al., 2018).The second phase of the research built upon the systematic review and provides practical insights from the Violence against Children Survey (Kurniasari et al, 2014). It illustrates the importance of contextual factors (such as language, religion, and cultural barriers to disclosure) when designing and carrying out future population based research (Rumble, Ramly, Nuryana,

“…Several studies support the argument that contesting a cultural husband's hegemonic authority and dominance may have implications for domestic violence (Hayati et al, 2014, Nilan, et., al, 2014, Aisyah & Parker, 2014, Rowe, Sutan & Dulka, 2006, Chatha, Ahmad & Syeikh, (2014, Margunani, et., al, 2021, Mshweshwe, 2020. From these researches, most arguments raise the justification of domestic violence derived from cultural and religious dogma rather than regulation.…”

Abstract. This article briefly examines Gender Based Violence (GBV) in Indonesia based on the 2021 and 2022 reports of the National Commission on Violence Against Women/Komnas Perempuan (NCVAW). It seeks to understand (GBV) and violence against women (VAW) viewed as a product of patriarchy that socially constructs and defines gender roles, gender relations, and power relations. Among several arguments, VAW cases are due to the vulnerable position of women caused by patriarchy that discriminates and subordinates women, in addition to the unequal power relation between men and women, husbands and wives, children and parents, other family members, friends, and colleagues. One perspective is selected to understand this violence: policy or law, providing directions from which this study focuses. Patriarchy or varieties of patriarchy applied in this work provide a brief theoretical tool of analysis to scrutinize GBV in Indonesia by assessing regulations and reports. This study employs a qualitative research approach that focuses on scrutinizing regulations and 2021 and 2022 reports. The findings suggest that GBV in Indonesia relates to the defined prescription of the husband and wife relationship in the marriage regulations. Patriarchal values may have shaped unequal social arrangements, gender roles, gender relations, and understandings of power relations at the macro and micro levels. Approaches to studying law and regulations concerning GBV are varied and complex. Theorising patriarchy and varieties of patriarchy are still relevant. The limitation of this article is that it offers broad contexts. Therefore, articulate research based on specific perspectives and distinct theories on these reports remains widely interesting. Keywords: Gender Based Violence, Violence Against Women, Law, Patriarchy. Abstrak. Artikel ini meneliti secara singkat mengenai kekerasan berbasis gender (Gender Based Violence/GBV) di Indonesia berdasarkan laporan Komisi Nasional (Komnas) Perempuan. Tulisan ini berupaya memahami GBV dan kekerasan terhadap perempuan (Violence Against Woman/VAW) sebagai produk patriarki yang mengonstruksi dan mendefinisikan secara sosial mengenai peran gender, relasi gender, dan relasi kuasa. Di antara banyak penjelasan, kasus VAW disebakan oleh rentannya posisi perempuan akibat patriarki yang mendiskriminasi dan mensubordinasi perempuan, serta timpangnya relasi kuasa antara laki-laki dan perempuan, suami dan istri, anak-anak dan orang tua, anggota keluarga, teman, dan rekan kerja. Ada satu perspektif untuk memahami kekerasan: yakni kebijakan atau hukum, yang menyediakan arah di mana kajian ini mengambil fokus. Patriarki atau berbagai jenis dari patriarki yang digunakan di dalam penelitian ini menjadi alat analisis teoritis singkat untuk meninjau GBV di Indonesia dengan menilai aturan dan laporan. Kajian ini menggunakan pendekatan penelitian kualitatif yang berfokus pada peninjauan regulasi dan laporan tahun 2021 dan 2022. Hasil penelitian ini menjelaskan bahwa GBV di Indonesia berkaitan dengan aturan relasi suami istri yang ditetapkan di dalam pernikahan. Nilai-nilai patriarkis menciptakan ketimpangan di dalam tatanan sosial, peran dan relasi gender, serta pemahaman tentang relasi kuasa di tingkat makro dan mikro. Pendekatan terhadap kajian hukum dan peraturan yang berfokus pada GBV beragam dan kompleks. Namun teori patriarki dan jenis-jenis patriarki masih relevan. Pembatasan penelitian ini menawarkan konteks yang mendalam karena mengartikulasikan penelitian berdasarkan pada perspektif yang spesifik dan teori yang khas pada laporan ini tetaplah sangat menarik.Kata kunci: Kekerasan Berbasis Gender, Kekerasan terhadap Perempuan, Hukum, Patriarki.
