JAKARTA - The Presidential Staff Office appreciates the achievement of the 2022 Human Rights Action which is very good and exceeds the target while confirming that the government has worked seriously to deal with human rights issues.

“KSP gives a high appreciation for the good achievements to colleagues in ministries and institutions, as well as local governments, be it a province, district, or city. Even so, these achievements must continue to be improved," said Deputy V KSP Jaleswari Pramodhawardani in a press release in Jakarta, Thursday, July 7.

Based on the report of the Committee for the National Action Plan for Human Rights (RANHAM) 2021-2025, the achievement of the first quarter of 2022 Human Rights Action (B-04) of ministries and institutions, provincial governments, and district/city governments as a whole shows 74.81 out of a maximum score of 100.

"The achievements of the Human Rights Action are in line with the President's directives. KSP will continue to encourage the mainstreaming of human rights at all levels of government. It is hoped that in the future more regions will actively participate in the implementation and reporting of Human Rights Actions," said Jaleswari.

The existence of the RANHAM, chaired by the Minister of Law and Human Rights, demonstrates Indonesia's compliance with international human rights instruments and recommendations that have been agreed upon and ratified, both under the mechanisms of the United Nations Human Rights Council (UN) and the United Nations Treaty Body.

RANHAM focuses on fulfilling the rights of vulnerable and marginalized groups, including women, children, persons with disabilities, and indigenous peoples.
