REFORMING CRIMINAL POLICY ON HUMAN ORGAN TRAFFICKING IN INDONESIA
Main Article Content
Abstract
Health technology has advanced rapidly, especially in finding treatments for many diseases. One notable advancement is the development of a new type of treatment: organ transplantation. This comes at a time when societal pressures and economic disparities have recently intensified, particularly in Indonesia. However, the demand for organs does not correspond with the number of donors. The study highlights that the legal arrangements for human organ trafficking in Indonesia are suboptimal, as there remains a potential for traffickers to exploit the absence of specific regulations governing transplantation and organ donation from living donors, whether through kinship or solidarity connections. Currently, there are no regulations governing the funding of organ transplants and donations.
