Abstract

Based on direct complaints to the National Commission on Violence against Women from 2015 to 2020, the educational environment in Indonesia was not free from sexual harassment. This fact contradicted the right of everyone to be free from torture, which is normalized in Article 28G paragraph (2) of the 1945 Constitution. This study aims to examine two things, which are: (1) how is the regulation regarding the protection of victims of sexual harassment in educational institutions? (2) What is the ideal mechanism for universities to prevent sexual harassment? This research is normative legal research using a statutory approach, a conceptual approach, and a comparative approach. The results of the study indicate the lack of protection for victims of sexual harassment and the lack of clear mechanisms for universities to prevent sexual harassment to support the Sustainable Development Goals in goals 4, 5, and 17. This research encourages the acceleration of the ratification of the Draft Bill on the Elimination of Sexual Violence as comprehensive protection for victims of sexual harassment and the adoption of Green Dot for Colleges as an American Campaign to prevent sexual harassment in higher education.
