Abstract

Komnas Perempuan’s Annual Records noted that within 12 years, sexual violence had increased by 792%, and it can occur in various places, including higher education. Tirto’s report in 2020, there were 174 reports of sexual violence spread across 79 universities in Indonesia. To prevent and deal with violence, the Minister of Education and Culture issued regulation 30/2021 on the prevention and handling of cases of sexual violence in higher education, where one of the primary roles of universities is to establish an anti-sexual violence community. This study focuses on the role and challenges of forming a higher-education community that supports efforts to prevent sexual violence. By conducting FGD’s and surveys with sixteen campuses in Indonesia, the study explained that the regulation of sexual violence alone is not sufficient to prevent sexual violence. It requires the commitment of all parties to form a community on campus that can play an active role in preventing and being a supporting system in handling cases of sexual violence in Indonesia’s higher education.
