Unfortunately, there has not been any systematic protection and support from both the government and actors in the arts industry for female and non-binary artists. The dissemination of knowledge regarding gender awareness\/perspective among arts activists and policymakers is still inadequate. As a result, gender inequality has become a systemic issue within the arts ecosystem.<\/span><\/p>\n

The inequality is identifiable in many different aspects.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, there is only a small number of women \u2013 and no non-binary person \u2013 who hold offices in the government and serve as policymakers on art. This situation is found at the Directorate-General for Cultures and other related government local offices. The Ministry of Women Empowerment and Child Protection does not establish any workforce dedicated to women-related issues in the realm of arts and culture.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the other hand, women and non-binary persons are not well represented within the discourse on arts field and history. Although, on the contrary, there are many of them who have contributed to the arts ecosystem and accomplished outstanding achievements.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, sexual harassment against women in the arts industry happens quite often. There are a lot of cases which go unreported or cannot be followed up because of the very vulnerable situation of the sexual harassment survivors. They must face public judgment and lose their career opportunities, making the trauma recovery increasingly hindered.<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, many suppression attempts directed toward women and non-binary persons are still to be found, citing communism, blasphemy, LGBTQ, and acting against customs and ethics as the excuses.<\/span><\/p>\n

Issues faced by transgender artists need to be addressed as well. Double stigmas and gender binarism in different mechanisms of data collection can potentially exclude their track records from arts history.<\/span><\/p>\n

To that end, it is time for Koalisi Seni to engage in the arts policy advocacy that includes gender perspective even further. This becomes a shared issue with increasing urgency in the realm of arts and culture.<\/span><\/p>\n

The advocacy is done through several means of implementation:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Data collection regarding gender inequality in the decision-making process for arts as well as sexual and gender-based violence in the arts ecosystem.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Proposing the discourse to the public through mass media op-ed and podcasts.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Lobbying for gender perspective mainstreaming into the government agencies.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/5″][vc_accordions style=”simple-style” open_toggle=”-1″ container_bg_color=”#f9f8f4″][vc_accordion_tab title=”DOCUMENT”][vc_column_text disable_pattern=”false” css=”.vc_custom_1615124891911{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n
