The increasing practice of unregistered marriage (nikah siri) in Banda Aceh has encouraged the local government to undertake various efforts to prevent and address this phenomenon. Unregistered marriages that are not officially recorded create legal problems and result in weak protection, particularly for women and children. This study aims to analyze the strategies of the Banda Aceh City Government in preventing and addressing the practice of nikah siri, as well as to identify the obstacles encountered in its implementation. The analysis is based on strategic framework, which includes strategic goal formulation, stakeholder identification, resource mobilization, and evaluation and adjustment. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach through interviews, observation, and documentation. The findings indicate that the government has carried out various efforts, such as promoting marriage registration, providing family guidance, and strengthening cross-sector collaboration. However, the implementation of these strategies has not been optimal. The main obstacles include low public awareness, strong cultural influences, limited resources, and weak supervision. Evaluation has been conducted, but it remains limited and has not involved broad community participation. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen inter-agency coordination, enhance public outreach, and enforce stricter regulations so that the prevention and handling of nikah siri can be carried out more effectively and sustainably.
