Main summary

Key takeaways

Educational

Main ideas / lessons conveyed

  • Sexual violence can happen anywhere, including universities, even though campus is widely viewed as a “safe and respectful” place for learning and work.
  • Universities are among the most vulnerable settings (based on the speaker’s discussion of public cases), because campuses are open social spaces where many interactions occur.
  • Discussing sexual violence on campus is important to:
    • make campuses safe, comfortable, and conducive for study/work,
    • uphold campus integrity,
    • and ensure students can contribute to society and complete education safely.

Key concepts

Sexual violence is gender-based and power-related

  • Patriarchal cultural context can shape how women and men are perceived (e.g., women treated as sexual objects), creating conditions for violence.
  • Unequal power relationships increase vulnerability—especially where access to outcomes (grades, recognition, academic advancement) depends on relationships.
  • Layered power dynamics on campus (e.g., senior–junior, age differences, student hierarchy) make victims—often those with lower power—more at risk.

Forms of sexual violence include more than “physical assaults”

  • The video emphasizes that sexual violence includes psychological, physical, social impacts, and also non-physical/online-based acts.
  • Examples given cover both overt acts and targeting through messages, recording, distribution, and harassment.

Regulations / policy framework mentioned

A) National / ministry-level policy (higher education)

  • Permendikbud / Ministerial Regulation No. 30 of 2021
    • Topic: Prevention and handling of sexual violence in higher education
    • Used as the main basis for campus prevention and response mechanisms.

B) Internal campus regulations (university-level)

Examples mentioned for each campus’s internal rules, including:

  • UGM Chancellor’s Regulation No. 1 of 2020
    • Topic: Prevention and handling of sexual violence in the UGM community
    • Mentioned as progress/change from earlier UGM ethics/conduct rules.

References to earlier UGM-related rules mentioned:

  • Lecturer code of ethics regulation (2004)
  • Chancellor’s decree / student code of conduct (No. 711 of 2013)
  • 2016 UGM decree/guidelines on prevention of harassment in the UGM environment

Additional note:

The speaker hopes every campus creates internal policies aligned with the later ministry regulation.

Factors causing sexual violence on campus (as presented)

  • Patriarchal cultural context
    • Women may be framed as sex objects.
    • Actions/performance by women may be stereotyped as “sexual.”
  • Power relationships
    • People with lower power are more vulnerable.
    • Academic/recognition processes can create dependence (grades, exams, evaluations).
  • Gender-based power within campus relationships
    • Example structure described: relationships where provider/authority roles differ by gender.
  • Age and hierarchical power
    • Younger/underclass students can be vulnerable to senior students.
    • Example referenced: affirmative action students under a certain age (speaker mentioned “under 17”) being vulnerable to senior-perpetrated violence.

Detailed list: Forms of sexual violence described (from Permendikbud No. 30 of 2021)

The speaker describes a regulation framework that categorizes sexual violence by impact and by specific conduct types, including non-physical and online forms. Key examples listed include:

1) Acts affecting body/reproductive function and humiliating/harassing/attacking (general definition)

Sexual violence is described as acts that:

  • humiliate, insult, harass, and/or attack a person’s body and/or reproductive function
  • due to unequal power relations and/or gender

Effects emphasized:

  • psychological impact, physical impact
  • disruption of reproductive health
  • can also limit the victim’s ability to study safely and optimally.

2) Non-physical and online-based sexual violence (detailed examples)

Examples specifically mentioned:

  • Conveying statements that:
    • discriminate or harass
    • objectify or sexualize physical appearance, body conditions, or gender identity
  • Showing genitals intentionally or without victim consent
  • Sending statements or “jokes” such as:
    • seduction jokes
    • whistling
  • Staring at the victim with sexual nuances
  • Sending:
    • joke messages
    • sexual-nuance SMS/chat messages
    • images, photos, audio, or videos with sexual content to the victim (especially if prohibited by the victim)
  • Taking/recording/distributing sexual-nuanced media without consent
    • including uploading photos without consent
  • Spreading information related to:
    • the victim’s body or personal sexual “nuances” without permission (not only explicit genital photos)

3) Voyeurism / “peeping” (mentioned generally)

  • Included as part of the covered detailed acts.

4) Coercion, exploitation, and ritual/punitive transactions (mentioned)

  • Persuading, promising, offering something, or threatening the victim to carry out an act/transition
  • “Ritual transactions” framed as part of exploitation
  • Including sexual coercion linked to power imbalance.

5) Physical acts (touching/harassment)

Physical touching actions such as:

  • touching
  • rubbing
  • holding
  • hugging

The speaker uses a term resembling “annuantitaching/annuntitaching” (unclear subtitle text) to refer to repeated/forced touching behavior.

6) Sexual punishment/discipline practices

  • Practices where one student is punished by another (or others) in relation to sexuality.

Handling process when sexual violence occurs (procedural steps)

A) Task Force mechanism (required structure)

  • The ministry regulation (Permendikbud No. 30 of 2021) requires each university to form a Task Force responsible for prevention and handling.
  • The Task Force workflow described includes:
    • Receive reports from victims
    • Provide assistance/support to victims based on their needs
    • Follow up on the case until
    • Examination/processing of the reported party
    • Imposition of sanctions on the reporter/perpetrator (as appropriate)
    • Victim recovery/support afterward

B) Integrated service system (how the victim is supported)

  • UGM is described as emphasizing integrated handling/services, so victims do not have to repeat processes.
  • Support pathways described:
    • Counseling / psychological care if needed
    • Medical services via a university hospital if needed
    • Police reporting support if the case must be processed criminally
  • Speed emphasis:
    • “Fast process” described as within 1–2 x 24 hours (speaker indicates urgent timelines).

C) Handling standards emphasized

Victim-centered and rights-based standards:

  • Empathetic and sensitive approach
  • Disability-friendly accommodations (diverse victim needs)
  • Independence during perpetrator examination/processing
  • Confidentiality:
    • protect victim identity and report information
    • prevent spread of information that could endanger the victim

The speaker also mentions:

  • protection for victims, witnesses, and companions
  • victims have a right to receive information about:
    • handling steps
    • timelines/what will happen
    • potential sanctions and the process

Prevention approach (detailed concepts)

  • Prevention is emphasized as crucial because handling alone creates a cycle of repeated cases.
  • Prevention measures referenced as being part of Permendikbud No. 30 of 2021 include:

1) Indirect and educational prevention

  • Include materials on sexual violence in introductory programs/courses
  • Conduct training/socialization for campus community (e.g., promotion/training mentioned)
  • Provide guidelines on reporting so people know:
    • whom to report to
    • through what media/platform

2) Strengthening perspectives and awareness

Strengthen:

  • gender perspective
  • understanding of women’s sexuality
  • awareness and inclusion regarding disabilities

3) Reporting/complaint mechanisms and localization

Create and strengthen:

  • complaint/reporting mechanisms at internal and external levels

Ensure people know:

  • how to use the Task Force
  • the existence and location of the Task Force

Examples mentioned:

  • socializing Task Force existence
  • using warning signs indicating “areas free from sexual violence”
  • campaigns through social media, dialogue seminars, and collaborations between faculties/universities/other parties

4) Code of ethics and conduct enforcement in campus communities

Build/strengthen:

  • code of ethics for student organizations
  • code of ethics for lecturers
  • code of ethics for staff and other relevant parties

5) Restriction on individual meetings outside campus

  • The speaker mentions a regulation restricting individual meetings outside campus areas.
  • Intended rationale:
    • reduce opportunities for violence to occur in inappropriate off-campus places (e.g., cafes/hotels/other locations).
  • Clarification described:
    • campus activities should be centered on campus
    • individual off-campus meetings require appropriate permission.

Types of campus cases described (practical examples from UGM experience/surveys)

The speaker (as part of UGM Task Force experience) says cases occur in many ways, including:

  • sexual harassment and whistling
  • physical unwanted touching
  • victims may be reluctant to explicitly say no/stop, but show nonverbal rejection.

Online/remote sexual violence highlighted:

  • SMS/chat messages with sexual content
  • recording without consent
  • threats related to distribution/leakage of sexual materials

Perpetrator relationships most commonly described

Perpetrators include:

  • lecturers
  • academic staff
  • students targeting female students (most common described)

The speaker challenges an assumption that sexual violence is only between lecturers and students:

  • many cases occur outside class and often in student-to-student contexts
  • examples: studying together in cafes, activities in organizations

The speaker emphasizes that:

  • lecturer–student cases can happen, but are described as less common than student–student cases (in their account).

Handling differences based on involved parties

Lecturer–student cases

  • Require more careful handling
  • Concern mentioned: high-position lecturers may face skepticism (“people may not believe” or may believe they won’t be prosecuted).
  • UGM is said to have resolved lecturer–student cases with sanctions.

Student–student cases

  • If within the same faculty, handling is coordinated by the faculty
  • If across different faculties, the Task Force plays a larger role (protective process until sanctions)

The speaker notes:

  • standards are similar: victims have rights to protection, services, timely examination, confidentiality, and information.

Criminal vs internal resolution (how it can continue beyond campus)

  • Handling outcomes are described as not uniform.
  • The regulation allows:
    • victim choices/preferences may include internal resolution only, ethical/internal mechanisms, or proceeding externally.
  • Criminal escalation depends on the type/severity of crime:
    • internal resolution does not replace resolution in the criminal realm
    • for more serious crimes (example mentioned: rape), it must proceed criminally even if the victim prefers otherwise
    • for less serious sexual violence categories, it may remain at the internal realm depending on victim interest and the legal category.
