This policy brief is based on research conducted by Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Gadjah Mada University (FISIPOL UGM) in collaboration with Civil Society Organisations partners ‘Aisyiyah, Yayasan BaKTI, KAPAL Perempuan, PKBI, SIGAB, PR YAKKUM, with support from the Australia-Indonesia Partnership Towards an Inclusive Society (INKLUSI).
This research aims to understand the main barriers in promoting Gender Equality, Disability, and Social Inclusion (GEDSI) at the regional level, specifically in three provinces—Aceh, DI Yogyakarta, and South Sulawesi—regarding marginalised groups’ access to basic services, economic resources, representation in decision-making processes, and their social status as equal citizens. This policy brief recommends three approaches: linking redistribution and representation efforts with meaningful recognition to reduce stigma against marginalised groups, framing inclusion work as a civic responsibility, and applying an intersectional and multisectoral approach in the formulation and implementation of inclusion programs.
