Abstract
Human trafficking, especially involving women migrant workers, has become a severe problem for Indonesia and Malaysia. From 2019 to 2022, cases of trafficking of female Indonesian migrant workers in Malaysia increased, demonstrating the challenges of protecting migrant workers' rights and eradicating human trafficking practices. Malaysia, as one of the leading destinations for Indonesian migrant workers, offers attractive economic opportunities. On the other hand, the high demand for cheap labor in the domestic sector makes many female migrant workers vulnerable to exploitation and human trafficking. This research aims to analyze the application of the CEDAW Convention as a way to resolve cases of trafficking of female migrant workers in Malaysia, particularly on the application of Article 6 of CEDAW, which focuses on eliminating trafficking and exploitation of women through an explanatory qualitative research design. Data was collected through literature study from various books, journals, and national and international official websites and analyzed using the Institutional Liberalism theory approach. The results of the analysis of the Strategy for Overcoming Trafficking Cases of Female Indonesian Migrant Workers in Malaysia Through CEDAW in the 2019-2022 period took various steps, including the establishment of the Task Force for Handling Victims of Trafficking in Persons (TPPO), the establishment of protection and rehabilitation centers for victims of human trafficking, and the temporary suspension of sending Indonesian migrant workers to Malaysia. This research emphasizes the importance of a multidimensional approach involving government, non-governmental organizations, and the international community to ensure effective and sustainable protection for women migrant workers.
