Reaktualisasi Nilai Musamus sebagai Cultural Shield dalam Analisis Kebutuhan Pembentukan Pusat Studi Gender dan Anak dan Satgas Anti Kekerasan Seksual di Universitas Musamus

Abstract

The increase in cases of sexual violence and harassment in the university environment emphasizes the urgency of establishing a protection system that is structured, fair, and victim-perspectived. This study analyzes the need for the establishment of a Center for Gender and Child Studies (PSGA) and the strengthening of the Anti-Sexual Violence Task Force at Musamus University through the approach of literature study, policy analysis, and SWOT analysis. The results of the study show that internal factors, such as the need for victim assistance services, the availability of human resources, and institutional commitment, as well as external factors, such as the national policy mandate (Permendikbud No. 30/2021), Merauke's socio-cultural dynamics, and cross- agency cooperation networks, affect the urgency of the establishment of PSGA. Musamus cultural values are togetherness, courage, and solidarity which have strong relevance as the basis of morals and institutional identity to strengthen the approach to protection and education on campus. Thus, the establishment of PSGA is not only an administrative response to regulations, but also a representation of the actualization of local values in building a campus ecosystem that is safe, inclusive, and in favor of human dignity. The implementation of PSGA based on Musamus values is expected to be able to create a protection system that is sustainable, humane, and responsive to the needs of the academic community.
