Human trafficking is the violation of human rights through violence, deception and coercion. Cambodia is one of the countries in Southeast Asia with a high rate of human trafficking. ASEAN then took action by establishing the ASEAN Convention Against Trafficking in Persons Especially Women and Children (ACTIP) as an effort to prevent and protect victims of human trafficking. This study shows that although the ACTIP provides a legal framework, its implementation still faces obstacles, weak institutional capacity, cross-country complexity issues, and lack of collaboration between ASEAN countries. The effectiveness of ACTIP then becomes important in assessing ASEAN's commitment in addressing human trafficking as a whole. Increased coordination between member states, strengthening law enforcement agencies are key in implementing ACTIP in the ASEAN region.
