This article discusses “The phenomenon of ambivalence in policy implementation: How Muhammadiyah /
Aisyiyah Universities protect women from sexual violence”. This phenomenon began when the Ministry refused
to change the statement by the Council for Higher Education, Research and Development regarding the revision
of article 5 (paragraph 2). ).Due to the Minister’s rejection, the Rectors of Muhammadiyah/Aisyiyah as street
level bureaucracy, only adopted clauses in the articles of the ministerial regulations that were in line with Islamic
values and principles, and integrated them with interpretive clauses related to Article 5 (paragraph 2). ) becomes
a new policy. This research uses qualitative research. The informant were the Rectors of Muhamamdiyah/
Aisyiyah Universities in the Eastern part of East Java. Qualitative descriptive techniques are used to analyze the
data. Each Muhamamdiyah/Aisyiyah University is currently implementing this new policy internally.
Presumably because it is enforced internally, the Ministry has not banned this practice. These findings highlight
the flexibility of implementing policies to protect women against sexual violence, allowing for changes in line
with the internal norms and principles of street-level bureaucracy.
