The Implementation of Presidential Decree on Gender Mainstreaming: Insight from IAIN Ponorogo
Year: 2021
Type: article
Abstract: This paper examines universities’ role in achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) targets by conducting field research and using a policy theory approach. Theoretically, successful policy implementation depends on several aspects, such as communication, the availability of resources, the disposition, and the character of the bureaucracy. This study found that the State Institute for Islamic Studies (IAIN) Ponorogo contributed to implementing SDGs, especially in quality education and strengthening gender equality. However, the institution did not explicitly formulate other SDG goals. Communication between the Institute for Research and Community Service (LPPM) as the leading sector for gender mainstreaming and leadership is manifested in the strategic plan and formal and informal meetings. Resources owned by IAIN Ponorogo in human resources and social capital are sufficient, which can be found from the active involvement of mass organizations of Fatayat, Muslimat, and Aisiyah in gender-strengthening activities. The rector of IAIN Ponorogo is collaborating with the Ministry of Women and Child Protection (KemenPPPA) in realizing gender equality implementation agendas. Meanwhile, the bureaucratic structure developed so far tends to be egalitarian and democratic. In preparing the Strategic Plan and the Master Plan (RIP), IAIN held a hearing with IAIN Ponorogo stakeholders, including the Academic Senate, which considers higher education policies. The problem is that the IAIN Ponorogo leader has not intensively monitored the targets for achieving gender equality, especially the other targets for achieving the SDGs.
