While completing her baccalaureate studies, Arivia became interested in feminism.

Upon her return to Indonesia, Arivia resumed teaching.

During the Asian Financial Crisis, Arivia – recognized as one of Jakarta's leading feminist scholarsШаблон:Sfn – protested against the government using the rising price of milk as a camouflage. On 23 February 1998, she joined some twenty other women at the Hotel Indonesia roundabout to protest high prices in a protest organized by Jurnal Perempuan and established Suara Ibu Peduli ("Voice of Caring Mothers"), an organization coordinated by Arivia. The protesters prayed, sang, distributed flowers, and read a statement that called for greater women's participation in resolving the crisis. Arivia was arrested with two other women, the astronomer Karlina Leksono Supelli and the activist Wilasih Noviana. After receiving extensive public support, the three were released.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn
