Al-Hamidiyah Islamic Boarding School in Depok Commits to Preventing Violence

Pondok Pesantren Al-Hamidiyah in Depok has reaffirmed its dedication to fostering a secure educational setting, free from all forms of violence. This commitment, in place since 2023, predates the national launch of the "Safe and Comfortable Space for Children" initiative.

The pesantren was chosen as the location for the government-backed national movement's launch on Sunday, July 12, 2026. Prof. Oman Faturrahman, Head of the pesantren's guardianship, welcomed the initiative, stating it aligns with the institution's long-standing efforts. "We strongly support this movement because it has been our commitment from the beginning. Since 2023, hopefully, this will inspire pesantren across Indonesia," Prof. Oman said.

Since 2023, the Al-Hamidiyah Pesantren Foundation has enforced a Director-General's Regulation on Guidelines for the Prevention and Handling of Violence within the foundation. This regulation applies to all members of the pesantren community, including students and educators. "The regulation was signed not by me as Head of Guardianship, but directly by the Director-General of the Foundation, signifying institutional commitment," he explained.

The guidelines explicitly prohibit all forms of violence, encompassing verbal, physical, sexual, and digital abuse. This comprehensive approach aims to ensure a safe and nurturing environment for all students and staff.
