Dark Bali
Strengthening and equipping those on the front lines of anti-human trafficking in Indonesia
Programs and results
What we aim to solve
According to research, there are 1,220,000 Indonesians enslaved today. Unfortunately the nature of Indonesia's geography and governmental regulations, make it extremely difficult for any large international organization to operate. Put simply, if the issue of modern day slavery or human trafficking is going to be solved, it will only be through the local grassroots community organizing and working together to achieve our mission. While our ultimate vision is to see slavery ended in Indonesia, we do this through our mission which is to strengthen and equip the frontlines of anti-human trafficking. By pouring resources into those directly involved in prevention, intervention, and restorative programs, we can impact the entire system of human trafficking.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Collaboration
The Dark Bali network is comprised of city/regional task forces which are connected into one larger Indonesian National Human Trafficking Task Force. Our role as the facilitating organization is to identify and network existing anti-trafficking organizations, facilitate task force meetings, coordinate projects between organizations to international networks and resources.
Contributions
Dark Bali facilitates and participates in data collection and research projects. Frequently, we serve as a liaison between our local partners and English-speaking stakeholders. Our Indonesian and international advocacy and awareness projects educate the public and bring new attention to the needs of trafficking victims and survivors and those supporting them.
Community Resourcing
Dark Bali provides professional training to the anti-trafficking community across Indonesia. We find and translate quality resources into Indonesian, identify/address current gaps in the national anti-trafficking response, and facilitate access into global anti-trafficking networks. We act as a fiscal sponsor to our network, enabling partnerships between local organizations and international donors.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
We believe that human trafficking will only be eliminated when local abolitionists are effectively working together. Our role in this community is to organize and bring resources to increase the capacity of every individual and organization fighting human trafficking in Indonesia.
Our primary program is the development of the Indonesia National Anti-Trafficking Task Force, a collaborative community of local Indonesian non-profits tackling the issue of human trafficking within Indonesia. Within the national community are smaller city/regional task forces focused on smaller geographic locations. Our pilot task force in Bali is 7 years strong and consists of multiple organizations, law enforcement, social services, and legal aid. It is a model for the impact a coalition of practitioners can make.
We continue to facilitate the establishment of other regional task forces and coordinate the Indonesia National Anti-Trafficking Task Force which networks us all together as one larger, more powerful voice.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Our Program Director is responsible for researching and identifying new organizations across Indonesia involved in anti-trafficking work. They are invited into the community and immediately begin participating as equal coalition members.
Some of our services to the network include:
- Professional Training & Development conferences, webinars, and seminars
- Assistance in local projects
- Local Task Force Support
- Small project grants
- Facilitating multi-organization projects
- Access to Global Anti-Trafficking Resources
- Data Collection
- Coordinating National Task Force meetings and presentations
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Every Dark Bali project is design to support, strengthen, and equip the anti-trafficking community of Indonesia. Projects are created at the request of our coalition partners based on their needs and how they see the needs of the entire community.
Once we have identified a need, we work together with our partners to create a project plan and then begin the process of fundraising for any additional resources needed. This method allows us to quickly pivot as things change in our sector, ensure that all projects are answering felt needs of our community, and create projects that are either ongoing and sustainable or efficiently attain project goals. It also ensures that the path between concept and execution of each project is very short.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
In 2015, Dark Bali began with 3 organizations on a single island in Indonesia. In 2022, we have 30 organizations from islands all across the country in our coalition and other organizations and entities (such as government services and law enforcement as well as the international anti-trafficking community) benefitting from our projects. As Dark Bali has grown, the scope of our projects have deepened, allowing us to bring more focused training project, data collection, funding, and Indonesian based resources to the community.
