Abstract

Penelitian ini menganalisis peran UN Women dalam menangani kekerasan terhadap perempuan di India akibat tradisi dowry pada 2018–2022. Tradisi ini sering memicu kekerasan berbasis gender, termasuk kematian akibat dowry. Meski pemerintah India telah memberlakukan Dowry Prohibition Act, implementasinya masih terbatas. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan teori Konstruktivisme untuk mengevaluasi pengaruh norma internasional terkait kesetaraan gender yang dipromosikan UN Women terhadap kebijakan domestik. Selain itu, teori kekerasan Johan Galtung membantu memahami kekerasan dalam lapisan langsung, struktural, dan kultural. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa UN Women berkontribusi melalui dukungan teknis, advokasi kebijakan, dan kolaborasi dengan pemerintah dan masyarakat sipil. Walaupun kesadaran gender meningkat dan insiden kekerasan berkurang, hambatan sosial-budaya yang mengakar masih menjadi tantangan utama.
