Abstract

This study aims to analyse the problems faced by East Timorese stolen children in Indonesia using the Human Security approach. Qualitative research includes research and collection of various empirical materials such as case studies, personal experiences, introspective, life stories, interviews, observational, historical, interactional, and visual texts. In conducting this data collection, researchers will use several methods, namely in-depth interviews, and documentation. This study found that these Stolen children were victims of conflict who had to face two phases of the violence. The first phase was when the Indonesian military forcibly transferred them from East Timor. While the second phase is when stolen children try to survive in Indonesia
