Universitas Indonesia has a policy regarding the Alleged Violation Reporting System, which was approved by the Rector of Universitas Indonesia in 2018 through Rector’s Decree No. 28. Through the Decree, the Rector of Universitas Indonesia emphasized the principles and objectives, types of violations, and the mechanism for resolving reports.

The Decree also emphasizes the protection and reward for whistleblowers who report alleged violations (including discrimination) of the principle of loss of education or employment. Alleged violations can be reported through the university’s Alleged Violation Reporting System (Sistem Pelaporan Dugaan Pelanggaran Universitas Indonesia (Sipduga UI)) or to the university’s Whistleblowing System (WBS UI).
