This proves that over the years violence against women is increasingly rampant and uncontrollable, which means that the condition of Indonesian women is experiencing an unsafe life. Meanwhile, the violence that most often occurs is violence in the personal realm, which means that it is committed by people around it or in family relationships. Meanwhile, the Data Online Information System for Mother and Child Violence (Symphony) until November 2, 2020, there were 1,358 cases, which increased from 900 cases previously.
