Political positions

Mental health On 8 November 2023, Nurhayati requested that the government take mental health issues more seriously by making therapy more accessible. According to her, the Public Health Centers located in Indonesia's major cities can be used as a platform for the government to begin training and staffing more psychologists. She also hopes that the government will establish a hotline for mental health issues, where people may voice their concerns and receive remote consultations via phone or live chat.

Gender equity Nurhayati asserts that women today play a very big and important role in society, particularly in the political sphere. She does, however, assert that there are still a lot of barriers and difficulties that women in politics must overcome, including prejudice based on gender, discrimination, and restricted access to opportunities and resources. Thus, more work is required to guarantee that women may participate in politics on an equal footing with men and that their achievements can be adequately acknowledged and compensated. She made some recommendations for actions to ensure that women's roles and contributions be larger and taken into consideration in the future. In an effort to hasten the conclusion of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine, Nurhayati Effendi requested the people to pray for peace.
