Abstract

This research will discuss access to justice for transgender people from the perspective of the state law of Pancasila through legal empowerment. This research uses a juridical normative research method in a prescriptive form, which identifies the main issues to be discussed thoroughly with the legal norms contained in Article 28G and Article 28I of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, Universal Declaration of Human Rights, International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights, International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and several related laws and regulations. From the research results, it is found that transgender people have not yet obtained access to justice in law enforcement, in addition, the rate of violence against transgender people in Indonesia is high, even though national and international norms require equal rights for everyone, including transgender people. The rule of law of Pancasila is to seek and construct human rights from various legal systems in accordance with the original values of the Indonesian nation.
