Overview
In early July 2026 Indonesia’s Human Rights Ministry announced a new anti‑trafficking programme targeting the island of Sumba and outlined plans to address refugee issues in Papua. By the end of the month the focus shifted to grassroots prevention, with the Lembaga Perlindungan Saksi dan Korban urging village‑level actions to detect and stop traffickers who now exploit digital platforms and AI. Deputy Speaker Lestari Moerdijat called for a stronger national system under the 2026 anti‑trafficking law to coordinate ministries, regions and civil society.
