The Mekong Region Land Governance (MRLG) project and the Land Portal invite you to join our online dialogue on the Recognition of Customary Tenure in the Mekong Region, from 13-24 February. The dialogue will focus on exploring the challenges and opportunities related to the recognition of indigenous, ethnic minority and community tenure rights in the Mekong region. Participants, from the Mekong region and around the world, will examine the status of community tenure rights and share ideas on how to strengthen them.

The dialogue will:

• Increase information exchange between participants inside and outside the region;
• Identify issues of common interest;
• Compare and contrast regional and international contexts and experiences in customary tenure recognition that can inform potential strategies and actions at country and regional level.
• Generate a regional level synthesis of key challenges and opportunities related to community tenure in the Mekong region that will be shared broadly.

A final report will be published and publicly available online following the dialogue.
