Audiovisual Program-Based Psychoeducation for Improving Literacy about Bullying and Sexual Violence for Pre-School Children

Children of Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI) pursue informal education, one of which is at the Sanggar Bimbingan spread across Malaysia. In education, they mostly learn about nationalism and religion, so there is still a lack of awareness and understanding of sexual education in pre-school children. Living in a neighboring country makes them a minority that is exposed to sexual violence and bullying. One of the efforts that can form literacy related to anti-sexual violence and bullying is to conduct psychoeducation. The psychoeducation carried out is based on audio visuals tailored to children's understanding accompanied by the delivery of material and question and answer sessions. The results of the activities that have been carried out show that the participants can participate in psychoeducation with enthusiasm, understand the parts of the body that should not be touch by others, and are able to identify behaviors that reflect anti-bullying. Overall, it can be concluded that the provision of audiovisual-based psychoeducation is effective for instilling pre-school children's understanding of anti-sexual violence and bullying.
