Abstract

This study aims to determine the view of feminism in seeing female refugee children in Indonesia during the new-normal era during the Covid-19 pandemic. Women and children are the most vulnerable creatures, so they need protection, especially those who have fled to Indonesia, a transit country. This research uses feminism theory and health security to explain the protection of refugees by children. This research uses qualitative research methods and data collection techniques with literature study. The research stages were collecting data, reducing data, and drawing conclusions. This study indicates that the government is still lacking in handling Covid-19 causing refugees to be neglected and difficult to get social and economic assistance. Feminism assumes that the state should meet the needs of children women have equality with men. As a transit country, Indonesia has limitations in fulfilling the rights of women child refugees because Indonesia did not sign the Vienna Refugee Convention 1951. At the same time, Indonesia itself ratified the Human Rights and the Convention on the Rights of the Child and a convention for refugees based on the Declaration of Human Rights 1948. Therefore, at the regional level, cooperation must be made to solve refugee problems. Cooperation between ASEAN member countries is important to synergize and help each other fulfill refugees’ rights, especially for those who are vulnerable, namely women child refugees, due to the lack of laws regulating refugees in ASEAN.
