    Trafficking in persons is a critical global human security challenge, directly undermining people’s rights, livelihoods and dignity. Indonesia is a major source country for women, children and men who are subject to sex trafficking and forced labour, with estimates on the number of victims ranging from 100,000 to 1 million persons annually. Over the past decade the Government of Indonesia has demonstrated a clear commitment to address human trafficking.

    Amidst severe economic challenges, Maluku, one of Indonesia's poorest provinces, grapples with heightened infant mortality rates, limited access to clean water and sanitation, and insufficient livelihood opportunities. Since 1999, ethnic conflicts have claimed numerous lives, displaced communities, and exacerbated poverty. The aftermath includes a fragile state of peace and a significant number of internally displaced people, who face housing challenges and limited financial resources. In addition, the lack of income-generating opportunities and weakened economic security constitute a breeding ground for conflicts at the community level.
