Abstract
This article explores the intricate relationship between Indonesia's political landscape and its efforts to combat human trafficking, particularly through the lens of digital advancements. Human trafficking remains a pressing issue in Indonesia, characterized by systemic challenges such as corruption, inadequate law enforcement, and socio-economic vulnerabilities. The study employs a qualitative research approach, utilizing policy analysis, and case studies to assess the effectiveness of current anti-trafficking strategies. Key findings highlight the potential of digital tools, including AI, big data analytics, and blockchain technology, in enhancing victim identification and improving coordination among law enforcement agencies. Furthermore, the role of public-private partnerships is emphasized as a critical component in advancing technological solutions and fostering community engagement. Despite these advancements, significant challenges persist, including disparities in digital infrastructure between urban and rural areas, cybersecurity concerns, and the need for enhanced training among law enforcement personnel. The article argues for Indonesia's leadership role in the Southeast Asian region, advocating for the adoption of comprehensive digital strategies that align with international human rights standards. By addressing the multifaceted nature of human trafficking through innovative approaches and collaborative efforts, Indonesia can strengthen its anti-trafficking framework and serve as a model for other nations facing similar challenges. This research contributes to the growing body of literature on human trafficking by providing insights into the intersection of politics, technology, and human rights, ultimately aiming to inform policy and practice in combating this global issue.
