UNICEF work in Indonesia: Building a protective environment for children

• The Government of Indonesia has signed, but not ratified yet,theOptional protocol to theConvention onthe Rights of the Child on the Sale of Children, Child Prostitution and Child Pornography.

• UNICEF works onthe law enforcement side to ensure its compliance with the CRC,and with the best interest ofthe childin mind.

• With UNICEF`s support, Indonesiahas adopted a Child Protection Law no.23/2002, which providesa comprehensive legalframework to protectchildren from abuse, violence, exploitation and discrimination.

• To better prevent children from falling victims of sexual exploitation and trafficking, UNICEF supports legal reform such as the adoption and implementation of the National Plan of Action (NPA) against CSEC and the NPAagainst trafficking in 2002.

• Atprovinciallevel, aProvincial Plan of Action against CSEC and Child Labour was adopted in East Java and drafted in West and Central Java.

• A draft bill on Trafficking of Women and Children has been drafted.


• Regional cooperation:

• Indonesia is part of the EastAsia and Pacific countries who have adopted the EAP Regional Action Planand Commitment against Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children in October 2001.

• However, there is a lack of legal cooperation between Indonesia and destination countries. Only limited MOUs have been signed between provinces (such as WestKalimantan and Sarawak province in Malaysia)


• Capacity building:

• UNICEF supports training of law enforcers (police, judges, prosecutors) on child protection. International technical expertise (for eg. from New-Zealand and France) supports this capacity building effort.

• Improving knowledge base:

• UNICEF supported an in-depth participatory research on CSEC in 2 districts (Indramayu and Surakarta).

• Beside the promotion of education for girls, training and employment opportunities are being provided to children at risk of exploitation in collaboration with the hotel industry.UNICEF works together withthe government and private sector topromote a better access to education for vulnerable children and to provide alternative vocational training for children and young people at-risk of exploitation.

• Piloting community-basedinitiatives to preventCSECand trafficking:

• At district level, UNICEF, in collaboration with its counterparts, is developing preventive programmes on CSEC in 2 districts (Indramayu and Solo). The objective of the project is to raise awareness and gain the commitment of communities on local actions to address the issue of children involved in the commercial sex trade. The first step was to conduct a qualitative assessment of commercial sexual exploitation of children to understand the extent of the problem, and the contributing factors. A local network has contributed towards the assessment and is responsible for disseminating its resultsto the local government, NGOs, media and the community. A community-supported monitoring system will be developed to track at risk children and groups and prevent children from becoming involved in the commercial sex trade. This will include working with children, parents and communities to raise awareness on the risks and to identify better alternatives.


• Monitoring:

• In collaboration with the Ministry of Women`s Empowerment and the police, UNICEF supportsthe developmentof a monitoring system on CSEC and trafficking. This activity is linked to the monitoring of implementation of regional commitments against CSEC signed by Indonesia.
