GBV Initiative Project

Background

GBV Initiative Project

The GBV Initiative Project, led by UNDP Indonesia’s Democratic Governance and Poverty Reduction Unit (DGPRU), is breaking new ground in the fight against technology-facilitated gender-based violence (GBV). Drawing on expertise from the Korean National Police Agency (KNPA), this project enhances the investigative and support capabilities of law enforcement to tackle digital sex crimes with a survivor-centred approach. UNDP Indonesia plays a pivotal role in facilitating inter-division coordination within the police, strengthening collaboration among relevant ministries, and partnering with civil society organizations. Key activities include training on online GBV investigation techniques, establishing a victim-centric reporting and police response system, and raising public awareness through educational materials. The primary stakeholders are the Women & Children Criminal Investigation Unit of Metro Jaya Regional Police and the Cybercrime Unit of Indonesia National Police. The mission is clear: to revolutionize online GBV investigation techniques, establish a victim-centric reporting and response system, and educate the public to tackle digital sex crimes in Indonesia.
