Abstract

Prevention of early marriage is one of the points of SDGs 5.3 that focuses on decreasing the number of child marriage cases. Empat Lawang Regency, which has a relatively high incidence of First Marriage Age (UKP) teenagers under 16 years of age, is 15.78% and teenagers with a range of 17–18 years of 22.28%. This figure is higher than the average child marriage data in rural UNICEF and BPS on 16,87%. As a result, negative effects on health, poverty, education and religious social aspects are emerging. The stakeholders’ cooperation plays a role in the resolution of this negative impact. This study aims to analyze the role and involvement of stakeholders in early marriage reduction programs. This study used a descriptive qualitative method. The stakeholders are dominated by local governments, namely the Office for Women Empowerment and Child Protection (DP3A), the Office for Population Control and Family Planning (DPPKB), the Health Office and other parties from community elements, and educational institutions. Research results show that early marriage reduction programs are still top down and local governments are playing the leading actor. People's low knowledge of the negative effects of early marriage makes people play a passive role. Formally there are still no detailed communication strategy documents and role sharing, but related stakeholders have practiced communication and interaction according to their interests. Based on their interests and influence, each party has a role classified into four categories: key players, subject, context setter and crowd. Based on their role, these stakeholders are divided into policy creators as compilers and policymakers, implementers who carry out programs in the field and facilitators who provide facilities that help implement early marriage unemployment programs.
