Institutional Effectiveness in Dealing with Sexual Violence: A Case Study in the UPTD PPPA Lampung Province

This research examines the effectiveness of the UPTD PPPA institution in dealing with cases of violence against children in Lampung Province. The study evaluates various aspects of the institution, including its organizational structure, human resources, budget, and programs. To conduct this research, a descriptive and qualitative approach was employed. Data sources included primary and secondary data, with primary data collected through in-depth interviews with key informants from the UPTD PPPA institution. The research employed field observations and documentation as additional data sources. It was found that the UPTD PPPA in Lampung Province has an adequate organizational structure, enabling vital functions to be carried out effectively. However, the institution faces challenges in terms of human resources, with a limited number of personnel struggling to cover a vast geographic area and numerous violence cases. Budgetary constraints are also a significant issue, as the allocated budget is considered insufficient to support all the established programs. The institution offers a range of programs to address victims of violence, starting from reporting, providing support, and concluding with rehabilitation. In summary, the key impediments to the institution's effectiveness lie in inadequate human and financial resources. To enhance program implementation, additional personnel and budgetary resources are essential.
