Salah satu bentuk tindak kekerasan yang sering dialami oleh anak dan kelompok remaja khususnya perempuan adalah tindak kekerasan seksual atau pelecehan seksual. Berbagai bentuk dan modus pelaku tindakan kekerasan secara seksual ini mayoritas dilakukan oleh kelompok orang dewasa dan bahkan anggota keluarga terdekat. Para pelaku pendidik yang notabene menjadi panutan para anak didiknya justru melakukan tindakan yang diluar etika, nilai dan norma. Menghadapi permasalahan ini, maka sekiranya dibutuhkan wawasan dan sebuah strategi guna mencegah terjadinya tindak kekerasan seksual yang menimpa kalangan usia anak dan remaja khususnya perempuan. Upaya yang dapat dilakukan adalah mengedukasi pendidikan seksual pada beberapa pihak terkait dan pada anak dan remaja perempuan agar mampu mengenali jenis atau bentuk dari kekerasan seksual. Bentuk edukasi yang dilakukan menggunakan metide atau teknik sosialisasi dan penyuluhan. Sosialisasi dilakukan dengan membagikan atau kampanya dengan menyebarkan pamflet dan stiker kepada kelompok-kelompok remaja dan warga masyarakat umum. Instansi sekolah tingkat SLTP dan SLTA menjadi bagian sasarannya. Metode penyuluhan dilaksanakan dengan mitra SMAN 1 Merawang.

The plastic woven bag has become a symbolic representation of Indonesian women's identity since the trend increased in 2021. The plastic woven bag represents femininity and the image of women as a result of socio-cultural construction. The activity of weaving paradoxically puts women in both a central and a marginal role. The weaving industry is characterized by an increasing number of platforms for women to generate income and improve their economic welfare. Nevertheless, women are still faced with patriarchal domination, because the demands of their domestic role limit their ability to move freely in public space. Therefore, their status as homeworkers has subordinated women to the status of marginal breadwinners in the economic system. This research aims to reveal the marginalization of women in plastic woven bag SMEs (small and medium enterprises). This research also aims to analyze the environmental risks that are faced by women, families, and society due to the use of synthetic chemicals in the production of woven plastic bags. This research used the perspective of eco-feminism, Bourdieu's (1977) concept of habitus, and Ulrich Beck's concept of a risk society (2012) as analytical tools. This research used qualitative research methods, and it was conducted at SMEs (small and medium enterprises) that produce plastic woven bags in Sambirejo Village, Madiun Regency, East Java, Indonesia. The subjects in this research were women who run SMEs. This research found that the marginalization experienced by plastic woven bag craftswomen was divided into two domains--the public (Woven House) and the domestic (household). Women still perceive the practice of marginalization as normal because of their pessimistic attitude and the Javanese philosophy of 'nerimo ing pandum (accepting one's lot in life as a gift of God). This study also concludes that environmental risks include the absence of waste management and the emergence of respiratory diseases suffered by some craftswomen. Therefore, it is necessary to have government policies and environmentalists' input to overcome the health problems experienced by craftswomen of these plastic woven bags. Keywords: Marginalization of women, Homeworkers, Environmental risks, Plastic woven bags, SMEs, Indonesian women workers, Introduction Community participation in the SMEs (small and medium enterprises) sector and the role of SMEs in national economic growth is increasing (Eriza & Saragih, 2019; Halim, 2020; Huda & [...]
