 This study examines women’s transformational leadership in educational institutions through a systematic literature review approach. The increasing involvement of women in leadership positions in schools and universities has attracted academic attention to understand their contribution to organizational development and the improvement of educational quality. This study aims to synthesize recent empirical research findings on women’s transformational leadership in education. The method used was a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) by identifying, evaluating, and synthesizing relevant studies published between 2021–2026 through academic databases such as Google Scholar and ScienceDirect using the keywords “transformational leadership,” “women leadership,” and “education or school.” After a selection process based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, 15 empirical articles were analyzed. The findings indicate that female leaders tend to demonstrate transformational leadership characteristics, including inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, idealized influence, and individualized consideration. These leadership practices positively affect teacher motivation and performance, organizational commitment, organizational climate, and learning innovation. However, women in leadership positions still face challenges such as gender stereotypes, structural bias, and social expectations regarding gender roles, indicating the need for institutional support and more inclusive policies.

This study examines the pedagogical transformation of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers in realizing gender-equitable and inclusive learning. Ideal PAI teacher pedagogy encompasses not only content mastery but also pedagogical competence and social sensitivity capable of responding fairly to learner diversity. This study identifies that traditional teacher-centered, rote-oriented pedagogy with minimal gender awareness constitutes a primary barrier to creating equitable learning environments. The required transformation includes developing cooperative learning strategies, eliminating gender bias in classroom interactions, differentiating instruction according to student needs, and using inclusive stereotype-free teaching materials. The theological foundation of Islam affirms that human dignity regardless of gender as emphasized in QS. Al-Hujurat: 13 aligns with inclusivity values in education, making this transformation an authentic manifestation of the rahmatan lil'alamin principle rather than a deviation from Islamic values. Despite ongoing challenges including entrenched patriarchal culture, limited gender literacy, insufficient inclusive teaching materials, and social resistance, this pedagogical transformation carries broad implications for improving learning quality, strengthening tolerance, and enhancing PAI teacher professionalism in Indonesia.

This study aims to analyze gender-based political violence in the 2020 Regional Head Elections in South Tangerang City and its impact on women’s representation in politics. The case analyzed involves social media attacks against Rahayu Saraswati Djojohadikusumo during her campaign for Deputy Mayor, in which an old photo of her while pregnant was used as material for sexually charged attacks. This study employs a qualitative method using a case study approach through literature review. The analysis utilizes Kate Manne’s theory of misogyny, which views misogyny as a social mechanism within the patriarchal system to control and discipline women entering the public sphere. The results of the study indicate that gender-based political violence manifests in the form of the moral delegitimization of women, digital intimidation or harassment, policing of women in public spaces, and the objectification of women’s bodies. These phenomena demonstrate that gender bias remains a barrier for women in securing equal space in local political contests.

Inclusive education and gender equality are two essential components in creating a learning environment that is fair, equitable, and responsive to student diversity. This article presents a systematic review using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) approach on 28 scientific articles published between 2019 and 2025. The research objective is to map the trends, implementation strategies, barriers, and opportunities for strengthening inclusive education with a gender perspective at the primary and secondary education levels. The results of the analysis indicate that the successful implementation of inclusive-gender education is closely related to gender-responsive teacher competence, family–community support, equitable school policies, and differentiated learning designs. The study also reveals that gender bias and stereotypes remain significant obstacles, while GESI/GEDSI training and pedagogical innovations have proven effective in improving the quality of inclusive education services. This review recommends strengthening the capacity of educators, reformulating school policies, and developing a gender-responsive curriculum as central strategies for achieving sustainable inclusive education.  

Abstrak. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perspektif perempuan dalam kebijakan lingkungan di Indonesia, serta mengidentifikasi sejauh mana perspektif tersebut telah terakomodasi dalam berbagai regulasi dan implementasi kebijakan. Mengingat perempuan memiliki peran strategis dalam pengelolaan sumber daya alam dan menghadapi dampak perubahan lingkungan secara berbeda dibanding laki-laki, maka keterlibatan perspektif mereka menjadi keniscayaan dalam mewujudkan kebijakan lingkungan yang berkeadilan gender. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode analisis wacana kritis terhadap dokumen kebijakan lingkungan nasional, seperti Undang-Undang Perlindungan dan Pengelolaan Lingkungan Hidup, Kebijakan Strategis Nasional tentang Pengarusutamaan Gender, serta dokumen Rencana Pembangunan Jangka Menengah Nasional. Data juga diperoleh melalui wawancara mendalam dengan para aktivis lingkungan perempuan, akademisi, dan pembuat kebijakan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun secara normatif kebijakan lingkungan di Indonesia telah mengakui pentingnya partisipasi perempuan, namun dalam praktiknya perspektif perempuan masih sering terpinggirkan dan belum menjadi pertimbangan utama dalam penyusunan kebijakan. Beberapa faktor penyebabnya antara lain: dominasi narasi teknokratis yang maskulin, lemahnya mekanisme partisipasi publik yang sensitif gender, serta masih adanya bias budaya dalam kelembagaan. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan perlunya reformasi kebijakan yang secara eksplisit mengintegrasikan perspektif perempuan, penguatan kapasitas kelembagaan dalam pengarusutamaan gender, serta peningkatan ruang partisipasi publik yang setara bagi perempuan dalam setiap tahapan kebijakan lingkungan.

This study examines the commodification of women’s bodies within environmental campaign content on digital media, focusing on a video produced by Pandawara Group that addresses textile waste issues. Although the campaign aims to raise ecological awareness, the visual emphasis on a female body particularly the exposure of a bra redirected public attention from environmental messages to sexualized interpretations in the comment section. This research aims to analyze how such meaning shifts occur through representation and audience interpretation. Using Sara Mills’ Critical Discourse Analysis, this study focuses on subject–object positioning and reader positioning in both visual and verbal elements of the content. The data consist of one campaign video and selected public comments on TikTok, analyzed qualitatively. The findings reveal that women are positioned as visual objects rather than active subjects within the discourse, while audiences are constructed as observers of the female body instead of interpreters of environmental issues. The recurring use of the phrase “content that unites the nation” further legitimizes sexualized readings and reinforces dominant gendered discourse. Importantly, the study finds that such interpretations are reproduced not only by male audiences but also by female users, indicating the internalization of dominant visual culture in digital spaces. This study contributes to gender and media studies by demonstrating that environmental campaigns are not free from gender bias and that visual representation plays a crucial role in shaping unintended meanings within social campaigns.

This study discusses the position of women in the creation of humankind based on Amina Wadud's feminist hermeneutics perspective as an effort to critique classical interpretations of the Qur'an that tend to be gender biased. For centuries, the tradition of interpretation dominated by male exegetes has shaped a theological understanding that places women in a subordinate and inferior position, especially in the narrative of human creation. Amina Wadud, as one of the contemporary Muslim feminists, offers a feminist hermeneutics approach that emphasizes the importance of historical context, linguistic analysis, and women's experiences in understanding the Qur'anic text in a more fair and comprehensive manner. This study specifically examines Wadud's interpretation of QS. An-Nisa 'verse 1, which states that humans were created from nafsun wahidah (one soul). Wadud asserts that this concept indicates the equality of origin between men and women, thereby rejecting the patriarchal view that women were created from men's ribs as second-class beings. The research method used was qualitative with a literature study approach, through analysis of Amina Wadud's works and relevant academic literature. The results of the study show that Wadud's feminist hermeneutics not only serves as a critique of classical interpretations that are laden with patriarchal bias, but also provides a strong theological basis for the recognition of gender equality in Islam. This approach opens up space for women to play an equal role in the social, political, and religious spheres. Thus, Amina Wadud's thinking contributes significantly to building a more inclusive, egalitarian, and gender-equitable understanding of Islam in accordance with the universal values of the Qur'an.

The book Uqūd al-Lujjayn fī Bayān Ḥuqūq az-Zaujayn by Sheikh Nawawi al-Bantani is one of the classical texts that is very popular among Islamic boarding schools and the Muslim community of the archipelago. However, in contemporary discourse, this book is often the target of criticism from Muslim feminists who accuse it of being full of gender bias and patriarchal. This criticism arises because of discussions about the wife's obligation to obey her husband, the prohibition of leaving the house without permission, and the husband's permissibility to reprimand his wife who is considered nusyūz. This paper attempts to conduct a philological and hermeneutic analysis of the text Uqūd al-Lujjayn by reviewing the historical, methodological, and fiqh reference sources of Sheikh Nawawi al-Bantani. This study found that the patriarchal character in the book is pseudo (pseudo), not ideological. Sheikh Nawawi actually wrote this book within the tradition of Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh akhlaqiyyah), not as a legitimation of male power over women. Through a philological approach, it was found that the text's structure and selection of hadith in this book aimed to educate household morals, not to reinforce the patriarchal system. Therefore, accusations of gender bias against Sheikh Nawawi require methodological reexamination to avoid falling into ahistorical ideological readings.

The development of digital technology has significantly transformed Islamic education, particularly in the growing discourse on gender equality within digital public spaces. Social media has become a new arena where diverse gender narratives—from progressive to conservative—compete for public attention, requiring a more systematic response from Islamic education. This study aims to describe the foundational concepts of gender in Islamic education, analyze how social media shapes gender perceptions among Muslim communities, and formulate effective educational strategies for responding to these challenges in the digital era. Using a library research design with a descriptive qualitative approach, this study applies thematic content analysis to synthesize relevant academic literature. The findings indicate that Islamic education holds strong potential to promote gender justice through theological, pedagogical, and digital literacy approaches. Nevertheless, significant challenges persist, including biased interpretations, the spread of misinformation, and the dominance of patriarchal narratives in online spaces. The study’s implications highlight the need for curriculum reform grounded in gender equality, teacher capacity development, strengthened Islamic digital literacy, and collaborative efforts among educators, scholars, and digital communities to build a more inclusive and moderate digital da'wah environment. These findings are expected to serve as a foundation for developing adaptive Islamic educational strategies that respond effectively to gender dynamics in the cyber era.

This study examines the psychometric properties of the Indonesian version of the Questionnaire for Eudaimonic Well-Being (QEWB) with a focus on internal structural validity and reliability. The research aims to provide empirical evidence regarding the feasibility of QEWB as an instrument to assess eudaimonic well-being within the Indonesian population. The process involved the adaptation of the original scale, followed by exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to evaluate its dimensional structure. Findings indicate that the Indonesian QEWB demonstrates adequate internal structural validity and reliable measurement consistency. The four-factor model meaning in life, self-discovery, personal expression enjoyment, and personal satisfaction and fulfillment showed the best fit, confirming the stability of this structure across analyses. Further examination through group comparison suggests that the instrument does not exhibit gender bias within the sample, supporting its fairness and applicability across male and female respondents. These results highlight the potential use of the Indonesian QEWB for research and psychological assessment, particularly in studies focusing on well-being, personal development, and organizational contexts. However, the generalization of findings should be approached with caution due to sample limitations. Future research is recommended to involve more diverse populations and explore additional psychometric evidence to strengthen the scale’s applicability across broader cultural and demographic groups.

The rapid development of artificial intelligence has encouraged the widespread use of chatbots on social media platforms, transforming patterns of digital communication and interaction. This study aims to examine the role of chatbots in shaping social interaction, fandom dynamics, and users’ digital identities within contemporary online culture. The research employs a literature review approach using grounded theory as an analytical framework to identify patterns, themes, and emerging concepts from relevant academic publications published between 2021 and 2025. Articles were collected through academic databases and systematically selected based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The findings indicate that chatbots have shifted from being purely functional technological tools to becoming cultural actors that influence emotional engagement, community formation, and identity expression in digital spaces. Chatbots contribute to creating perceived emotional closeness, strengthening fandom interactions, and facilitating self-expression, particularly within popular culture and creative industries. However, the study also highlights several challenges, including emotional dependency, algorithm-driven homogenization of preferences, gender bias, and aggressive behavior in human–machine interactions. Cultural context plays a significant role in shaping user acceptance and interpretation of chatbots. These findings imply that chatbot development and implementation should consider not only technical efficiency but also social, psychological, and ethical dimensions to ensure responsible and inclusive digital interaction.

The issue of gender equality in Qur'anic interpretation remains a profound problem, particularly when biased lexical interpretations obscure the liberating theological principles of the text. This article aims to analyze the concept of "zauj" in the Qur'an and its relevance as a foundation for gender equality. This research employs a qualitative approach, utilizing Toshihiko Izutsu's semantic analysis method and contemporary Qur'anic hermeneutics. The findings reveal that "zauj" is a cosmological principle of paired creation, implying equality, compatibility, and reciprocity. The reduction of the meaning of "zauj" to merely "wife" in many traditional interpretations constitutes a semantic distortion that perpetuates gender inequality. The gender-based relational disparities that occur are more due to patriarchal interpretive structures than the universal message of the Qur'an itself. The concept of "zauj" instead offers a paradigm of equal and complementary relations, which can form the basis for reconstructing gender-just family ethics in Islam. Therefore, the deconstruction of interpretive hegemony and the holistic reconstruction of the meaning of "zauj" are essential prerequisites for realizing egalitarian and just gender relations in Islam.

This study examines the Coldplay Gate phenomenon as a reflection of gender inequality and weak ethical relations in the workplace. The event, which began as a personal issue in the entertainment sphere, evolved into a public discourse because it revealed the vulnerability of women within organizational power structures. The workplace, which should uphold professionalism, instead demonstrates gender bias, subordination, and dysfunctional practices that undermine institutional integrity. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with a literature study as the main method. Data were collected from news articles, research reports, and official publications from both national and international institutions such as the World Bank Gender Data Portal (2024), Statistics Indonesia (BPS, 2024), the International Labour Organization (ILO), and Populix (2024). Data analysis was conducted using content analysis to identify key themes, including women’s subordination, abuse of power relations, and weak organizational ethics. The findings indicate that Coldplay Gate should not be understood merely as a personal scandal but as a reflection of unequal workplace structures. Empirical data reinforce this conclusion, such as women’s labor participation of only 55.41 percent, limited representation in strategic positions (15 percent of CEOs are women), and high levels of workplace discrimination (45 percent). These findings highlight the need for ethical awareness and gender sensitivity to be internalized within organizational culture. The study concludes that formal regulations must be accompanied by the development of a fair, safe, and inclusive professional culture, enabling workplaces to function as equal spaces for all individuals without barriers based on gender or power relations.

This study examines the strategic role of Koperasi Desa Merah Putih (Red and White Village Cooperative) in accelerating the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Indonesia, using qualitative document analysis as the primary method. Key institutional documents—namely the Articles of Association/Bylaws (AD/ART) and the Village Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMDes)—were analyzed to identify cooperative values, integration into local development planning, and contributions to specific SDG indicators. Findings reveal that the cooperative’s core principles—voluntary membership, inclusivity, democratic governance, and equitable profit sharing—align strongly with SDG 1 (No Poverty), SDG 5 (Gender Equality), and SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth). The RPJMDes analysis indicates formal recognition of the cooperative as a driver of economic empowerment, gender equity, and sustainable community development, with potential scalability to other villages and rural areas in Indonesia. Further analysis demonstrates how the cooperative actively promotes women’s participation in leadership roles, supports income-generating activities for marginalized groups, and encourages the localization of economic value chains. These practices foster not only economic inclusion but also enhance community resilience and social cohesion. However, several challenges were identified. These include inconsistent documentation quality, lack of standardized performance metrics, and limited results-based evaluation frameworks that hinder a thorough impact assessment. Additionally, there remains a gap in digitalization, which affects data transparency and accessibility. The study’s novelty lies in its document-based approach, offering a replicable model for assessing SDG readiness in similar rural institutions. Unlike interview-based studies, this method reduces subjective bias and highlights the importance of formal governance structures.

This study aims to analyze the correlation between the principle of equality before the law and the affirmative action policy, which is expressed in the form of a 30% quota for women's representation in the political field, as stipulated in Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections. The focus of the study is directed at the extent to which this quota policy is in line with the principle of equality before the law and reflects substantive justice in democratic practices in Indonesia. The research method used is normative research by examining laws and regulations, legal doctrine, and relevant literature. This approach is used to assess whether the quota policy for women's representation is in accordance with the constitutional principle of equality, while also considering the challenges of its implementation in a socio-political context that is still gender biased. The results of the study indicate that the 30% quota for women in legislative candidacy is a form of positive discrimination intended to correct structural and historical inequalities in women's political participation. This policy is expected to open wider spaces for participation so that women have equal opportunities to play a role in the legislative process and public policy making. However, this policy has also drawn criticism. Some believe that the quota emphasizes fulfilling numbers rather than the quality and capacity of the individuals nominated. Therefore, the quota must be accompanied by efforts to improve the quality of women's human resources, political education, and transparent, merit-based selection mechanisms. This way, women's representation will not only be formal but also substantial and contribute significantly to democratic development. In conclusion, the 30% quota policy remains necessary as an affirmative step toward de facto equality. However, strengthening capacity and supporting systems is crucial for its implementation to align with the principle of equality before the law and achieve substantive justice.  

Revision of the Law on Sexual Violence (UU TPKS) has become a strategic urgency in efforts to eliminate gender bias inherent in the current legal construction, especially related to the subjectivity of men as perpetrators and the objectivity of women as victims. The current TPKS Law, although it has provided an important legal basis for the protection of victims of sexual violence, still contains a gender paradigm that limits the understanding that perpetrators of sexual violence are only men and victims are only women, thus ignoring the complexity of social reality and the diversity of victims and perpetrators23. This approach not only reinforces patriarchal stereotypes, but also hinders fair and inclusive law enforcement. Therefore, the revision of the TPKS Law must be directed at eliminating rigid gender constructions, adopting a more neutral and inclusive perspective, and strengthening responsive legal protection for all victims without exception. This revision must also emphasize the role of the state in fulfilling victims' rights and integrating independent monitoring mechanisms to ensure effective and equitable implementation. Thus, the revision of the TPKS Law is not merely a normative update, but rather a transformation of the legal paradigm that prioritizes gender equality, respect for human rights, and substantive justice for the entire community

Employee shift scheduling in the hospitality industry remains a critical yet complex task due to fluctuating operational demands, fairness requirements, and labour regulations. Many hotels still rely on manual scheduling methods, which are time-consuming and prone to biases, particularly in ensuring fair workload distribution across employees. Despite numerous studies on workforce scheduling, limited attention has been given to integer linear programming (ILP) models that address gender-based restrictions and operational fairness simultaneously in real-world hotel contexts, especially in developing regions such as Central Java. This study proposes an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) model to generate optimal shift schedules for hotel staff over a 31-day planning horizon. The model incorporates operational constraints, including one shift per day, gender-based restrictions (which prevent female staff from working night shifts), availability, minimum staffing levels, and fairness in workload distribution. Key parameters and binary decision variables were defined to ensure compliance with the hotel's specific requirements. Empirical data were collected from a hotel in Central Java involving 20 employees, and the model was implemented using Python with a Gurobi solver. The ILP model successfully generated optimal schedules in under 10 seconds, significantly outperforming the manual method, which required over 4 hours. While the manual schedule resulted in an imbalance where some employees worked over 27 days and others only 22, the ILP approach enforced a strict maximum of 26 working days for all staff. Furthermore, the fairness index (FI) improved from 19.2% in the manual method to 0% in the ILP-generated schedule, indicating complete equity in workload allocation. The proposed ILP model demonstrates its effectiveness in improving scheduling fairness, operational efficiency, and compliance with labour policies. This work not only addresses a critical research gap in hospitality scheduling practices in Indonesia but also offers a replicable framework for other labour-intensive service sectors. Future research may explore multi-objective extensions incorporating employee preferences, satisfaction, and dynamic demand fluctuations.

The ratification of the new Criminal Code (KUHP) through Law Number 1 of 2023 marks an important milestone in the history of Indonesian criminal law. The new Criminal Code replaces the colonial product that has been in place for more than a century and brings significant updates, especially in the regulation of gender-based crimes such as sexual and psychological violence. The recognition of these forms of violence is a response to the demands of civil society and is part of Indonesia's commitment to international human rights instruments. However, the effectiveness of such arrangements still faces serious challenges, such as the narrowness of the criminal formulation, the high burden of proof, and the potential for gender bias in the criminal justice system. In this context, criminal law should not only be a means of repression, but also carry out preventive and protective functions through holistic criminal policies. An integrative approach that combines penal and non-penal strategies is important to address the complexity of gender-based violence that is structural and multidimensional. This article aims to critically evaluate the provisions of the new Criminal Code related to sexual and psychological violence in the perspective of gender-responsive criminal policy. The evaluation was carried out taking into account the principles of restorative justice, the protection of victims' rights, and the need for social transformation that supports equality and non-discrimination. The results of this study are expected to be an input for the improvement of a criminal law system that is fairer and on the side of victims, especially women and other vulnerable groups.

ABSTRAK Ketahanan nasional menghadapi tantangan baru seiring dengan meningkatnya ancaman radikalisme dan terorisme di Indonesia. Dalam konteks ini, kearifan lokal berpotensi menjadi modal sosial yang efektif dalam memperkuat strategi pencegahan terorisme berbasis sosial-budaya. Penelitian ini menganalisis peran kearifan lokal dalam membangun ketahanan nasional melalui mekanisme preventif dan adaptif terhadap radikalisme. Menggunakan metode studi literatur sistematis dengan pendekatan kualitatif, studi ini mengidentifikasi nilai-nilai lokal seperti gotong royong , siri' na pacce , dan pela gandong yang berkontribusi dalam memperkuat ketahanan sosial. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa integrasi kearifan lokal ke dalam kebijakan keamanan menciptakan sinergi antara pemerintah, lembaga keamanan, dan masyarakat, serta pergeseran paradigma keamanan dari yang berorientasi negara (state -centric ) menjadi berbasis masyarakat ( society-centric ). Selain itu, kearifan lokal berperan sebagai fondasi cultural resilience dengan memperkuat kohesi sosial dan identitas inklusif. Namun, pendekatan implementasi ini menghadapi beberapa tantangan, seperti resistensi generasi muda, politisasi identitas, dan bias gender. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini merekomendasikan penguatan kelembagaan adat, pengembangan indeks ketahanan budaya, serta adaptasi kreatif melalui digitalisasi konten lokal. Dengan demikian, pendekatan berbasis budaya dapat menjadi strategi transformatif dalam mewujudkan keamanan berkelanjutan (sustainable security).
