Abstract

AbstractCertification trainings for court‐annexed mediators have been conducted in Indonesia since 2003; however, the curriculum fails to include domestic and family violence and the impacts of gender and the abuse of power on women and children, which are crucial in a patriarchal country such as Indonesia. The authors contend that it is imperative to include these topics in the curriculum to raise mediators' awareness of the influence of patriarchy, on themselves and the disputants and on the process and outcomes for women and children. The authors assess the development and training of court annexed mediators in Indonesia and recommend changes to the current certification training curriculum, the development of national competency standards and a code of ethics and funding for research.
