Restoring safe spaces and free from gender-based violence, particularly for women, was voiced by CARE Indonesia during the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence.

Together with JEKATA from Sukabumi District and Purwakarta District, as well as the GBV task force from garment factories in Sukabumi District, CARE Indonesia encouraged the public to advocate for safe spaces for women and stop gender-based violence at the Car Free Day event in Sudirman – Thamrin street, Jakarta (30/11), supported by Tirto.id and Diajeng.

A focused discussion was also held with representatives from the Ministry of Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection, National Commision on Violence Against Women, and the Witness and Victim Protection Agency to strengthen safe spaces for women in communities and workplaces. Participants joined BISINDO sign language sharing session and took part in various interactive games at the CARE Indonesia booth in collaboration with the Institut Français d’Indonésie.
