Abstract
Meaningful public participation in the legislative process in Indonesia is a fundamental element in fostering an inclusive and transparent democracy. Despite the legal mandate for public involvement, as outlined in Law No. 13 of 2022 and Constitutional Court Decision No. 82/PUU-XXI/2023, such participation often remains formalistic and limited in practice. This article highlights the potential of digital technology, particularly the concept of CrowdLaw, as an alternative approach to enhancing public engagement. Case studies from Estonia, Iceland, and Brazil demonstrate that digital participation can effectively increase public involvement and improve the quality of legislative outcomes. With sufficient infrastructure and improved digital literacy, Indonesia is well-positioned to harness technology to create a more inclusive legislative process. However, challenges such as unequal access to technology and low levels of digital literacy across much of the population hinder this effort. Therefore, this article recommends strengthening public participation at all stages of the legislative process, implementing policies that support the sustainable adoption of CrowdLaw, enhancing digital infrastructure, developing user-friendly participation platforms, and expanding digital literacy education to ensure more equitable and substantive public engagement in legislative processes
Bahasa Abstract
Partisipasi masyarakat yang bermakna dalam pembentukan peraturan perundang-undangan di Indonesia merupakan komponen utama dalam menciptakan demokrasi yang inklusif dan transparan. Berdasarkan Undang-Undang Nomor 13 Tahun 2022 serta Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Nomor 82/PUU-XXI/2023, partisipasi publik telah diwajibkan, namun dalam praktiknya sering kali masih bersifat formalitas dan terbatas. Artikel ini menyoroti potensi teknologi digital melalui konsep CrowdLaw sebagai alternatif untuk memperkuat partisipasi masyarakat. Studi di negara-negara seperti Estonia, Islandia, dan Brasil membuktikan bahwa partisipasi digital dapat meningkatkan keterlibatan publik secara efektif, sekaligus memperbaiki kualitas produk hukum. Dengan infrastruktur yang memadai dan peningkatan literasi digital, Indonesia diharapkan mampu memanfaatkan teknologi guna menciptakan proses legislasi yang lebih inklusif. Tantangan yang diidentifikasi dalam implementasi partisipasi digital di Indonesia mencakup kesenjangan akses teknologi dan rendahnya literasi digital di sebagian besar masyarakat. Oleh karena itu, artikel ini merekomendasikan penguatan partisipasi masyarakat dalam seluruh tahap pembentukan peraturan perundang-undangan, merancang kebijakan yang mendukung CrowdLaw secara berkelanjutan, peningkatan infrastruktur digital, pengembangan platform partisipasi yang ramah pengguna, serta edukasi literasi digital yang luas, agar partisipasi publik dalam legislasi menjadi lebih merata dan substansial.
