The  Indonesian Women’s Association for Justice & Legal Aid Institute is an NGO that provides legal assistance to women who are campaigning for justice and legal rights in Indonesia. Established in 1995, LBH-APIK has advocated for equity of legal treatment for women and men through a combination of legal aid, research and advocacy. The NGO utilizes two avenues to achieve its goals. Primary is free legal aid for women who are “socially, economically and culturally marginal.” This includes coverage of legal costs ranging from court, consultation and lawyers. Second is campaign and advocacy work with the overarching goal of equitable legal treatment in Indonesia.
