Feminism in Indonesia refers to the long history of discourse for gender equality to bring about positive social change in Indonesia.[1] The issues women in Indonesia currently are facing include gender violence, underage marriages, and lack of representation in the political system.[2] Feminism and the women's right movement began during colonial Indonesia under Dutch rule and were spearheaded by the national heroine Kartini,[1][3] a Javanese noblewoman who advocated for the education of all women and girls regardless of social status.[3] In the early 19th century, women's rights organizations and movements were allowed to developed under Budi Utomo, the first Indonesian Nationalist organization.[4][1] Modern day Indonesian feminism include and are influenced by both fundamentalist and progressive Islamic women's organizations.[5]
According to the 2020 Gender Gap Index measurement of countries by the World Economic Forum, Indonesia is ranked 85th on gender equality.[6]
