Imelda Sapitri — 2023-12-03

Indonesia as a democratic country must involve the participation of all components of society in determining the direction and policies of the country. The female voter population of 96,572,045 is greater than the male voter population of 96,294,209. The author conducted normative legal research on the existence of women's representation in DPR. As for the research results, the urgency for gender equality is: 1. Women's freedom from the patriarchal system; 2. Women can determine their future direction and goals; 3. Women as Role Models; d. Women are able to compete. The presence of women parliament can successfully change the culture from a masculine to a more female-friendly one. Regulations on women's candidacy arestated in Article 246 of the Election Law and Article 3 of PKPU No. 20 of 2018. Currently, women's representation in the DPR is 20.87%. Women's representation has succeeded in accommodating women's rights in the form of Law No. 12 of 2022 concerning Crime of Sexual Violence. An obstacle to increasing women's representation is that political parties still tend to place the serial number positions of female legislative candidates at the bottom of the serial number. With this, political parties must also consider the potential of female legislative candidates to get the leading number

Abdul-Wasi Babatunde Moshood — 2024-01-31

This research looked at the connection between the All-Progressive Congress's internal democracy in Lagos State, Nigeria, and peacebuilding techniques. To provide direction for the investigation, two hypotheses (tested at the 0.05 level of significance) were established. All political players in the state were included in the population, which was stratified into senatorial districts to provide a sample size of 289 using correlational and descriptive research techniques. Pearson's Product-Moment Correlation Analysis was used to evaluate the data. The results of the study show that there is a positive, moderate, and significant relationship between peacebuilding strategies and power-sharing arrangements with the All-Progressives Congress in Lagos State (r =.643, ρ < 0.05). Additionally, there is a positive, weak, and significant relationship between peacebuilding strategies and inclusivity and diversity with the All-Progressives Congress in Lagos State (r =.312, ρ < 0.05). The study concludes that power-sharing in Lagos State has become increasingly important due to the diverse nature of its population, which consists of people from different ethnic, religious, and socio-economic backgrounds as well as diversity and inclusivity, as it involves recognizing and celebrating the differences that exist among individuals and communities. It is recommended in the study that the political parties in Lagos State, particularly All Progressives Congress (APC) should endeavour to observe internal democracy so as to give room for transparent party primaries, as this would reduce incidences of replacing candidates, thereby promoting an atmosphere for peaceful coexistence, equity and fairness.

Yuswarni — 2024-02-02

This research discusses the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through the development of Nagari-Owned Enterprises (BUMNag) in Mungka District, Lima Puluh Kota Regency, as an integrated effort for economic, social, environmental, legal, and governance development at the nagari level (local wisdom for villages in West Sumatra). In this context, BUMNag acts as a new means and approach in utilizing the potential of Nagari Mungka to improve the welfare of its people. This is done by considering the opportunities and needs of the Nagari to 'accommodate', support, and consolidate economic businesses within the Nagari area, so that it becomes a new source of income for the Nagari government in improving the local economy. This research uses a qualitative method with a case study approach by considering literature or reference studies. The results showed that the establishment of BUMNag has not fully implemented the eighteen goals of the SDGs program in Nagari Mungka because it is not strengthened by locally based policies, namely village regulations. It can be concluded that the existence of BUMNag is currently not maximally utilized, and there is still a lack of a comprehensive work program.
