As a result of this project, land prioritized by communities in Bengkulu province is being processed by the Agrarian Affairs Ministry for land redistribution under the Agrarian Reform program. This process will ensure legal recognition of smallholders’ land rights on a disputed ex-concession area and empower the community in their land governance.  Activities to date include a field visit by the Ministry of Agrarian Affairs to measure claimed land, and the creation of a local taskforce for Agrarian Reform implementation, which AKAR will be part of.
