Unearthing the Relationship Between Women Living in Mining Areas and Their Political Participation in Indonesia: The Dataset
This study examines the impact of mining industries on women’s political participation in Indonesia. Mining regions, often characterized by male-dominated labor structures and economic dependency on extractive industries, create socio-political barriers that limit women’s engagement in formal politics and decision-making processes. This research investigates how the presence of mining activities influences women’s political agency, leadership opportunities, and representation in local governance. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study analyzes national-level electoral data to compare women’s political participation in mining and non-mining districts. Additionally, qualitative case studies from selected mining regions explore the socio-economic and institutional constraints faced by women in pursuing political roles. Key factors examined include patriarchal norms, economic reliance on extractive industries, environmental activism, and policy frameworks that either enable or restrict women’s political involvement. The results indicate that while mining regions present significant structural barriers to women’s political participation, they also serve as spaces for emerging grassroots mobilization, particularly in environmental advocacy and community governance. This research contributes to the broader discourse on gender and resource politics by providing policy recommendations to enhance women’s representation in extractive economies.

Transmisi Risiko Fiskal
Pemerintah menempuh kebijakan ekspansif. Tata kelola yang baik dan cara-cara yang tak mendistorsi pasar akan memberikan hasil positif. Demikian pula sebaliknya. Pasar modal sempat bereaksi negatif terhadap penggantian menteri keuangan meskipun tak lama kemudian kembali berbalik arah. Pasar melihat potensi peningkatan risiko fiskal akibat kebijakan ekspansif di bawah menteri keuangan baru. Paling tidak ada dua indikasi awal atas strategi fiskal ekspansif tersebut. Pertama, memindahkan dana pemerintah senilai Rp 200 triliun dari rekening Bank Indonesia ke perbankan pemerintah. Kedua, merancang Anggaran Pendapatan dan Belanja Negara (APBN) 2026 dengan defisit lebih lebar dari rancangan sebelumnya, menjadi 2,68 persen terhadap produk domestik bruto (PDB). Selain ekspansif, menteri keuangan baru juga dinilai melakukan intervensi pasar melalui wacana kenaikan suku bunga tabungan valuta asing oleh bank pemerintah. Meski kebijakan tersebut diingkari dan akhirnya dibatalkan, sinyal buruk terlanjur tertoreh di pasar. Baca selengkapnya di sini Artikel Opini di Kompas oleh A. Prasetyantoko, Senior Fellow IPP
People-centered Policy: Applying Social Design to Social Research & Evidence-based Policy
Friday, 25 July 2025 – Atma Jaya Institute of Public Policy in collaboration with Center for Urban Studies Universitas Pembangunan Jaya have successfully held the public seminar “People-centered Policy: Applying Social Design to Social Research & Evidence-based Policy” at Universitas Katolik Indonesia Atma Jaya, Semanggi. This event is attended by academics from various universities, researchers, and government officials. Dr. Deng’s Presentation As the keynote speaker, Dr. Jian-bang Deng an expert from Tamkang University, Taiwan, presented a comprehensive exploration on how social design can inform more humane and inclusive migration policies. Using data on migration flows before and after the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Deng showcased how global and regional migration trends have shifted, along with the social and economic narratives surrounding them. Dr. Deng emphasized that future policies must recognize migrants as agents of development, advocating for a shift toward people-centered migration policies that are built upon lived experiences, social realities, and dignity. These human-centered frameworks are essential for building resilient, diverse, and socially sustainable cities in the face of continued migration and urbanization. Case StudyFollowing the presentation, participants engaged in a collaborative case study session, where they were divided into three groups. Each group explored real-life urban issues in Jakarta using a social design lens; identifying social patterns, problems, and proposing people-driven policy ideas. The discussions ranged from public mobility challenges, accessibility of transportation, to waste management and other broader urban life issues in Jakarta. Using a quadrant-based mapping approach—measuring potential impact and level of uncertainty—each group identified pressing social issues and evaluated them based on feasibility and urgency. This process allowed participants to prioritize problems that are not only high in impact but also manageable in terms of uncertainty. Based on these insights, groups developed preliminary policy recommendations grounded in social design principles, emphasizing participatory and human-centered approaches to improve urban living.

On the other hand, Indonesia published Presidential Decree No. 60 Year 2023 on the National Strategy on Business and Human Rights.

Anatomi Kampanye Negatif
Oleh: Salvatore Simarmata, peneliti senior Atma Jaya Institute of Public Policy (AJIPP) “Kampanye negatif menjelang Pemilu 2024 cenderung menyasar aspek emosional pemilih. Sulit dibedakan dari kampanye hitam.” Serangan politik dari para pendukung bakal calon presiden, entah itu Anies Baswedan, Ganjar Prabowo, dan Prabowo Subianto, kepada kandidat lain sudah marak dalam beberapa bulan terakhir, khususnya secara daring. Akun-akun resmi ataupun anonim secara rutin menyuarakan pesan-pesan negatif untuk menggerus elektabilitas kandidat lawan […] Baca selengkapnya opini Salvatore Simarmata dalam Koran Tempo, Kamis, 13 Juli 2023 terkait kampanye negatif Pemilu 2024.
