Human Trafficking is a transnational crime that poses a serious challenge in Indonesia. Although Indonesia has enacted Law No. 21 of 2007 and ratified the Palermo Protocol through Law No. 14 of 2009, their implementation still shows significant shortcomings. This study analyzes victim protection principles in Indonesian TIP cases through normative-juridical analysis and case studies. Findings indicate the national legal approach is often repressive toward victims, failing to fully adopt a victim-centered approach. This study recommends strengthening law enforcement training and awareness, providing comprehensive protection for victims, and establishing an integrated institution for a more effective and just response to human trafficking.
