Lands under conflict – incidence, drivers, and impacts: An infographic on 2023 land monitoring reports from six Asian countries

Land is a valuable and limited resource, often causing conflicts due to competing interests. These conflicts often result in human rights violations, threatening lives and livelihoods, particularly among the rural poor. These, thus, call for urgent intervention from governments and stakeholders.

This infographic presents the key highlights and key areas for intervention of the 2023 land conflict monitoring reports across six Asian countries: Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Nepal, and the Philippines.

This infographic is based on the publication, “Contested lands: incidence, drivers, and impacts of conflict: A monitoring report of land conflicts in six Asian countries, 2023: In Defense of Land Rights, Third Edition.”
