The Impact of Violence Against Women, Empowering Change From Victim to Survivor

The presence of gender-based violence, primarily directed at women, occurs to various parties in Indonesia in various age ranges, young or even old. These inappropriate actions can be classified into various forms of violence, physical and non-physical. Cases of violence against women in Indonesia have reached a very alarming number and occur in all parts of Indonesia. 

The impact of these indecent acts varies for each victim and the type of violence committed where in the worst cases death becomes the end for the victims themselves. 

The existence of laws in the form of regulations that are present in this society seems to be less effective as a form of prevention considering the number of cases that are present until this moment, where even independent institutions are formed as a deep response to these indecent acts. The government's unitary unit and even the service center as a place of complaint do not seem to be able to work effectively to prevent these inappropriate acts from occurring.
