Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Gender Mainstreaming Implementation in 2020 in Batu City, East Java

The study aims to identify the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on gender mainstreaming (PUG) imple­mentation in Batu City and how the local government res­ponds to it. Focus Group discussion (FDG) with local government is run to obtain data. By using seven elements commonly used to evaluate PUG implementation, this study shows that the COVID-19 pandemic has remarkably impacted PUG implementation. No specific policies have yet been made within the PUG framework. PUG institutions are also not involved in the COVID-19 task force. There have been efforts to respond to pandemics’ impact in some sectors but not all in PUG. Human resources have not been explicitly prepared in dealing with women’s problems during the COVID-19 pandemic. The budget is reallocated so that even routine activities cannot be fully carried out. Community partici­pation is also helpful in tackling the pandemic, although it has not specifically responded to the impact on PUG. The study shows the importance of integrating a disas­ter perspective in the monitoring and evaluation of PUG. It demonstrates the importance of integrating a disaster per­spective in PUG and crucial gender-disaggregated data related to disaster impacts

It is based on various problems faced in Islamic education management.

Demikian untuk memberikan  pemahaman secara holistik dan mendalam, penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan teori konstruksi sosial Peter L. Berger, melalui hubungan dialektis antara eksternalisasi, objektivasi dan internalisasi. Penelitian ini menghasilkan beberapa temuan; 1) kearifan lokal madrasa pada hakikatnya merupakan manifestasi dari al-Qur’an sebagai (belief system) dan menjadi dasar pengelolaan pendidikan Islam; 2) kearifan lokal madrasa, seperti; kejujuran, kedisiplinan, kebersamaan, komitmen, kesederhanaan, kemandirian, keikhlasan, kepemimpinan, bekerja keras dan tanggung jawab, difahami sebagai energi positif dan di internalisasikan dalam lingkungan madrasa; 3) habitualisasi nilai kearifan lokal madrasa, merupakan sebuah modal sosial (social capital) yang kemudian ditransmisikan dalam pengelolaan  pendidikan Islam, sehingga dapat mempengaruhi seluruh pemikiran dan tindakan sosial individu yang efektif dalam organisasi
