  • Self-Governed Interorganizational Networks for Social Change
    Self-Governed Interorganizational Networks for Social Change: A Case Study of the Criminalization of Online Sexual Grooming in Malaysia Keren Acevedo Rachel Kuilan Main field of study - Leadership and Organization Degree of Master of Arts (60 Credits) with a Major in Leadership and Organization (One-Year) Master Thesis with a focus on Leadership and Organization for Sustainability (OL646E), 15 Credits Spring 2019 Supervisor: Chiara Vitrano Thesis title: Self-Governed Interorganizational Networks for Social Change: A Case Study of the Criminalization of Online Sexual Grooming in Malaysia Authors: Keren Acevedo, Rachel Kuilan Main field of study - Leadership and Organization Degree of Master of Arts (60 Credits) with a Major in Leadership and Organization (One-Year) Master Thesis with a focus on Leadership and Organization for Sustainability (OL646E), 15 Credits Spring 2019 Supervisor: Chiara Vitrano Abstract Cross-sector collaborations in the form of self-organized interorganizational networks are key mechanisms to address complex social sustainability problems in a systematic manner with accelerated and effective results. Self-organized interorganizational networks allow for collaborations through low degrees of hierarchy and bureaucracy while achieving high levels of ownership and commitment among member organizations. These type of networks have proven useful to achieve policy reforms to tackle societal problems related to rapid evolving and internet related crimes affecting children. This study analyses the initial conditions and emergence of self-organized interorganizational networks, as well as the structural arrangements and governance structures that facilitate the network organization. To do so, the authors used as case study the criminalization of online sexual grooming in Malaysia that resulted in the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017.

The panellists consisted of The Right Honourable Lim Guan Eng, Chief Minister of Penang; Dr Terence Gomez, Professor of Political Economy, University of Malaya; Maria Chin Abdullah, Chairperson of BERSIH 2.0 (Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections); and Dato’ Dr Ahmad Farouk Musa, Chairman and Director of Islamic Renaissance Front.

The session commenced with YB Lim Guan Eng’s brief elucidation of the Penang State’s efforts in pushing back against the shrinking democratic space faced at both Federal and State levels across Malaysia. The Chief Minister stated that Penang is the only state in Malaysia to have a “Speaker’s Corner”, and took the opportunity to commend the Penang police for never having arrested anyone for speaking his or her mind. Topics that were touched on included the bill that He reminded the audience that Penang had PAS President, Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang, plans passed the Freedom of Information Act to to table; local council elections; and action taken guarantee to the general public the access to against dissenters through the State apparatus.
