Inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. The Indonesian National Police (INP) will introduce a Women and Vulnerable Groups course into the undergraduate curriculum for female non-commissioned officers, aiming to strengthen early capacity building in gender-sensitive policing.

The INP Public Relations Division Head of Public Information Bureau Chief Brigadier General Trunoyudo Wisnu Andiko said  on  Saturday (3/1/2026) that the move reflects a long-term strategy focused not only on law enforcement but also on education.

“The INP does not focus solely on downstream law enforcement, but also on upstream strengthening through education,” he said, as quoted by antaranews.com.

The course will be taught at the Police Colleges (STIK–PTIK) and is designed to equip female officers with gender perspectives, victim-centered approaches, and skills to handle cases involving women and vulnerable groups more professionally. The policy responds to ongoing challenges such as underreporting, victim stigma, and limited field capacity.

Chief Trunoyudo said the curriculum reform complements training programs, standard operating procedures, and inter-agency cooperation, reinforcing its commitment to human rights–based, inclusive, and humane policing aligned with national priorities on women and child protection.
