Indonesia

Indonesia is a multiparty democracy. Domestic and international observers deemed the elections to be free and fair. Violence between government forces and separatist groups continued in the Papua region, with numerous reports of abuses by nongovernmental groups against civilians. The government investigated and prosecuted some of these. Human rights activists and academics who criticized the government were digital harassed and intimidated. There were reports that members of the security forces committed abuses. The government did not systematically take credible steps to identify and punish officials who may have committed human rights abuses.

The overall score indicates that there are substantial risks of potential human rights violations in this country. This may also include the tourism sector. Relevant risks for the tourism sector are, e.g.:
  • Lack of investigation of and accountability for gender-based violence
  • Threats of violence against members of racial and ethnic minority groups
  • Threats of violence against LGBTQI+ persons and the existence of laws criminalizing consensual same-sex sexual conduct between adults

For better comparability, we have converted the original scores of the indices to a uniform scale of 1-100 (1 most negative, 100 most positive).

In the following table you find these recalculated values and the original score in brackets behind them.

The Overall Score is the geometric mean of all converted values for each country. It is subcategorized in five risk categories with colour gradations that can be seen in the map.
