Safeguarding the Future: Child Protection and the Prevention of Child Marriages in Indonesia

Child protection is an issue in Indonesia, which has a varied cultural heritage and has experienced economic downturns. According to Arliman (2017), Indonesia has created policies, efforts, and governmental and non-governmental organizations to ensure Children's protection and wellness. The nation's legal structure consists of global and across-the-country conventions, which disclose the relevance of the initiatives placed by the federal government to protect and safeguard Children's' lawful rights. According to Vaitla et al. (2017), the focus has been on securing wellness and constitutional freedoms, specifically in the problem of early marriages. The country's decision to promote child protection through fundamental laws such as the constitution originates from the implications for the future and children's health. Olojede et al. (2020) reveal numerous problems in managing children's issues, such as forced marriage, denying their basic civil liberties, and gender-based violence. Despite the federal government's efforts, numerous difficulties proceed and remain prevalent in different Indonesian areas and regions.
