Women in Indonesia have been affected harder than ever especially since the pandemic, with sexual harassment cases doubling up its number. Research (2022, Koalisi Ruang Publik Aman) shows that 4 out of 5 women in Indonesia face sexual harassment in public.
Sexual harassment takes a toll on women and how they perceive themselves as human beings. More often than not, women start to feel guilt, shame, and frustration post-incident, causing them to isolate themselves from society.
The Whistleblower is a zine campaign that aims to give comfort to those who have been victims of sexual harassment and evoke empathy to the public on such an occurrence, so they may support those dear to them.
