  • Abstract

    Indonesia is currently facing a state of emergency due to a lack of sexual and reproductive health education, which is essential for enhancing public health outcomes, especially among youth. At the global level, the implementation of sexual and reproductive health education faces challenges. Insufficient resources, a shortage of qualified educators, and cultural opposition limit access to sexual and reproductive health education. Traditional communities may also resist such education, fearing that engaging adolescents in discussions about sexual issues could promote sexual engagement, which in turn leads to high rates of sexual violence. The data from the Ministry of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection reported 18,018 school-level reports of sexual violence, with 9,781 incidents involving sexual violence. This study focuses on the SRH education in Bekasi, Indonesia, a city with the highest incidence of sexual violence in schools. By using mixed research methods, the research reveals that the current education in Indonesia is inadequate, with a focus on biological aspects of sexual health and a lack of practical information on sexual health, relationships, and reproductive rights. The curriculum also neglects the emotional, social, and psychological dimensions of sexuality, leading to a lack of understanding of sexual development and increase the number of sexual violence among students. Furthermore, the SRH education also influenced by cultural, religious, and social factors. The country's Muslim-majority population often views sexuality as taboo, limiting open discussions on issues like sex, reproduction, and relationships. Parents often feel uncomfortable or unsure about starting conversations about reproductive health with their teenagers, leading to a knowledge gap and increased risk of unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections. The absence of standardized guidelines also contribute to the complexity of SRH education. Addressing these challenges is crucial to empowering young individuals with the knowledge and skills needed to make informed decisions about their sexual and reproductive health. However, overcoming these challenges is essential to ensure the health and well-being of Indonesian students.
