Abstract. This article aims to offer feminist ethnographic methods for Public Administration inquiries. Fifteen years doing research in feminist ethnographic methods show some crucial issues connected to the atmosphere of public administration. Feminist ethnography gives a different nuance; it enriches the view of equality, justice, and prosperity. In a mining conflict, for an example, a feminist ethnography opens up poor public services. Some policies to cope with conflict effects have been impoverished indigenous citizens. The vulnerable groups do not benefit from conflict resolution promoted by the government. The findings show that the feminist ethnography clearly expands the PA's space. As an offered method and a "new" paradigm in PA, this method refines the policy setting agenda, and speeds up public services. The method documents crucial issues from the silent voices. It is identifying some residents' loss of their public rights.
