Abstract
Dengue fever is an infectious disease transmitted through the bite of the Aedes
aegypti mosquito. Efforts to control this disease often face insecticide resistance and
environmental factors. One innovation that is expected to reduce the spread of DHF is the
application of gene drive by utilizing Wolbachia bacteria. This technology works by infecting
mosquito populations to reduce their ability to transmit dengue virus. This article discusses the
implementation of the policy on dengue treatment through gene drive based on Wolbachia
bacteria in Indonesia, focusing on regulatory aspects, field tests, and community acceptance of
the technology. This study used a qualitative approach with secondary data analysis from
policy documents, field trial results, and interviews with stakeholders. The results showed that
although field trials showed promising results in reducing the spread of DHF, the challenges
faced were immature regulations and public concerns regarding environmental and health
impacts. Therefore, a more integrated policy approach is needed, as well as better
communication to increase public understanding and support for this innovation.
