Collaborative Governance in the Execution of the Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) Agenda in Indonesia: RAN-P3AKS Policy

Abstract

The global framework of UN Security Council Resolution 1325, namely the Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) agenda, has been adopted by Indonesia through Presidential Regulation Number 18 of 2014 concerning the Protection and Empowerment of Women and Children in Social Conflict (called: RAN P3AKS). At the national level, Indonesia has a National Action Plan. The implementation of the RAN at the national level is carried out by involving intersectoral and multi-actor approaches. This study aims to determine the process of collaborative governance of the government in implementing the WPS agenda in Indonesia. The research method used is qualitative descriptive with data collection through literature studies. The results of the study concluded that the process of collaborative governance in implementing WPS in Indonesia has experienced progressive development. This is evidenced by the establishment of constructive dialogue from various intersectoral actors involved, the formation of commitment and a sense of shared responsibility with the issuance of national policies down to the regional level, and the increasing participation of women and youth in the prevention, resolution, and recovery of conflicts to build social cohesion.
