This research was conducted in the Jayapura City area, the capital of Papua Province. The research method used in this research is normative legal research carried out by analyzing the provisions of statutory regulations governing the general election of members of legislative bodies including members of the Papuan People's Representative Council (DPRPapua) based on Law Number 21 of 2001 concerning Special Autonomy for Papua and Special Regional Regulation concerning the Appointment of DPRPapua members within the Papua Special Autonomy framework for the 2019-2024 term of office. The discussion of the two problems can be described as follows: the level of representation of indigenous Papuan women in the membership of the Papua Province People's Representative Council for the period 2019-2024 is 4 (four) people, carried out using an election mechanism of 3 (three) people and 1 person appointed (one) person out of 69 (sixty-nine). The composition of women's representation still shows no partiality and deviations from women's political rights due to (i), the Election Law only states a quota of at least 30% (thirty percent) of women registered as Central Executives in parties and not as a guarantee of membership procession in DPRPapua institutions. (ii), the Papua Special Autonomy Law only provides general regulations including in the Regional Regulation on the Appointment of Members of the DPRPapua DPR for the 2019-2014 period which only uses the formulation of the phrase "must pay attention to women's representation" in the selection process.
