Ministry of Human Rights Employees Can Now Practise as Non-Judge Mediators

The Ministry of Human Rights (HAM) has stated that its employees can now obtain official recognition to become non-judge mediators. Those eligible to practise are those who have received a Decree (SK) as a non-judge mediator from the district court after participating in mediator training and certification. “We can be proud because the results of the mediator training we conducted for employees at the Ministry of Human Rights have now received official recognition from the court and they can now practise as non-judge mediators,” said Head of the Human Rights Human Resource Development Centre (Pusbang SDM) at the Ministry of Human Rights, Aditya Sarsito Sukarsono, as reported by Antara on Thursday (11/6/2026). Aditya stated that this achievement demonstrates tangible results from the competency development programme run by his institution. According to him, the achievement proves that the education and training provided not only yield competency certificates but also open opportunities for employees to contribute directly to dispute resolution through mediation mechanisms. One employee who has obtained a non-judge mediator decree is Anis Ratna Ningsih, who was appointed as a non-judge mediator at the Pangkal Pinang District Court in the Bangka Belitung Islands Province. Aditya assessed that this success reflects the increasing capacity of Ministry of Human Rights apparatus in the field of peaceful, effective, and just conflict and dispute resolution. He said that mediation competency is closely linked to efforts to respect, protect, fulfil, enforce, and advance human rights, as it prioritises dialogue and constructive problem-solving. Beyond being an individual achievement, he noted that the success of employees in obtaining non-judge mediator decrees also demonstrates the effectiveness of the competency development programme implemented by the Human Rights HR Development Centre. “We remain committed to developing human rights human resources in Indonesia across all lines and areas of life, so that the government’s goals under President Prabowo Subianto regarding human rights-based development can truly be realised,” he said.
