Sobre Putri L.
Putri is reducing sexual violence in Islamic boarding schools through an educational board game and by establishing a reporting channel.
Putri believes that Islamic boarding school is a great place for learning and deepening our spirituality. She was shocked when she read that Islamic boarding school ranked second to university when it came to where sexual violence against young people was conducted in Indonesia. This concern moves her to create Walice, an initiative that helps young people in Islamic boarding schools understand more about sexual violence and what to do to support victims and report incidents.
Her first component is education, which introduces cards detailing 15 types of sexual violence with descriptions and illustrations. The second crucial component is a reporting channel, designed to offer a safe, supportive, and confidential environment where victims can share their experiences without fear, ensuring their reports are taken seriously. Finally, the third component provides support for victims, offering a safe space for emotional expression and comfort, with provisions to connect victims to professional help if further assistance is needed. So far, her programs have reached over 130 students across three Islamic boarding schools in West Java.
