This study aims to examine the implementation of the sexual harassment prevention program for students carried out by the Sexual Violence Prevention and Handling Task Force at Halu Oleo University, as well as to identify the obstacles in its implementation. This research employed a qualitative approach with purposive sampling techniques, resulting in five individuals being selected as research informants. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and document studies, and were analyzed using an interactive analysis model consisting of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the implementation of the sexual harassment prevention program for students at Halu Oleo University has not been fully optimal. The handling of victims is still often conducted through a familial approach, which does not entirely align with the formal mechanisms that should be implemented by the Sexual Violence Prevention and Handling Task Force. The main obstacles to the implementation of this program are the limited budget provided by the university and the lack of collaboration with student organizations. These two factors significantly affect the effectiveness of the program’s implementation. Therefore, sufficient financial support and stronger cooperation with student organizations are needed to ensure that the program can run more effectively in creating a safe university environment free from sexual violence.
