Legal protection for persons with disabilities in Indonesia has been regulated in various laws and regulations, such as Law Number 8 of 2016 concerning Persons with Disabilities, as well as international legal instruments such as the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) which has been ratified by Indonesia. Although normatively the legal framework has reflected the state's commitment to guaranteeing the rights of persons with disabilities, the reality on the ground shows that there is still a significant gap between regulations and their implementation. This study aims to identify factors that cause inconsistencies between legal norms and their implementation practices, as well as to evaluate the role of state institutions and society in the process. The method used is a normative and empirical legal approach by examining applicable regulations and their implementation in several sectors, such as education, employment, and accessibility of public facilities. The study results show that the main obstacles in implementing regulations lie in the lack of coordination between institutions, budget constraints, minimal legal socialization, and suboptimal monitoring and law enforcement mechanisms. Therefore, a more holistic and integrative strategy is needed to close this void to realize justice and equality for persons with disabilities in Indonesia.
