Aminatun Zubaedah

Aminatun is a facilitator and Head of the Gender and Local Governance Division at AKSARA, which is currently working with vulnerable groups, especially women and children. She works to ensure the inclusion of gender and human rights in all projects, including in relation to local governance and disaster risk management. She develops programs, conducts studies, and develops media campaigns relating to rights fulfilment, with a focus on socio-economic rights, and community concerns about health, education and the economy. She hopes that the program will strengthen her advocacy work and teach her how to efficiently and effectively assess policies, as well as better utilise the media as a tool for advocacy, with the ultimate aim of increasing the mainstreaming of human rights in national policy-making.
