Human Trafficking in Indonesia , a pervasive global issue, has been a significant challenge in Indonesia, where individuals, particularly women and children, are subjected to forced labor and commercial sexual exploitation.
Indonesia, as a major migrant-sending country in Southeast Asia, has a complex labor migration landscape that intersects with the problem of human trafficking. (Bal & Palmer, 2020) The Indonesian government has taken various measures to combat this crisis, but continued efforts are needed to address the multifaceted nature of the problem.

The Indonesian government has taken various measures to combat this crisis, but continued efforts are needed to address the multifaceted nature of the problem. Human trafficking is a complex and multidimensional issue in Indonesia, with victims often facing difficulties in identifying and receiving assistance.
The country's role as a major source, transit, and destination for trafficking has led to the development of regional approaches to address the problem, such as through the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Khoo, 2010). However, national-level human rights institutions have remained crucial in promoting and protecting the rights of trafficked individuals in the absence of established regional mechanisms. (Khoo, 2010)
Recent data indicates that Indonesia is the third-largest migrant-sending country in East and Southeast Asia, with a significant portion of its labor force engaged in domestic and caregiving work abroad (Bal & Palmer, 2020). This circular labor migration has given rise to complex governance challenges, as well as debates around the links between remittances and development.
The Indonesian government has attempted to address these issues through policies such as the "zero migrant worker roadmap," which has faced criticism for being discriminatory and violating the economic rights of workers. To address these concerns, researchers have suggested that the government focus more on skill and capacity building for migrant workers, as well as the implementation of a social protection approach. (Dewi & Rezasyah, 2018).
This research paper highlights the complex and multifaceted nature of human trafficking in Indonesia, drawing on regional and national-level approaches to addressing the issue.
It is essential that the Indonesian government, in collaboration with civil society and international partners, continue to develop and implement comprehensive strategies to combat human trafficking, protect the rights of migrant workers, and promote sustainable development outcomes.
