Abstract

This research aims to reconstruct the law on the obligation of virus sharing in the IHR system so that it can be carried out fairly, both for WHO as the global health system management institution and for parties such as Indonesia. The approach used is normative juridical with qualitative analysis of international documents, implementation practices, and academic literature. The results show that IHR needs to be strengthened through the integration of access and benefit sharing (ABS) principles that ensure a fair distribution of benefits for the use of viruses or genetic data, as well as binding accountability mechanisms between countries. Thus, this legal reconstruction is expected to be a conceptual contribution to global health governance reform based on justice and equality.
