AN ANALYSIS OF INTERNATIONAL LAW, NATIONAL LEGISLATION, JUDGEMENTS, AND INSTITUTIONS AS THEY INTERRELATE WITH TERRITORIES AND AREAS CONSERVED BY INDIGENOUS PEOPLES AND LOCAL COMMUNITIES
This report analyzes the legal and institutional frameworks governing Indigenous Territories and Community-Conserved Areas (ICCAs) in Malaysia, with a primary focus on Sabah. It examines the tension between traditional customary land rights (adat) and state-led economic development, particularly the expansion of oil palm plantations and logging. The document details the potential for integrating community-led conservation into formal protected area networks and reviews landmark court cases in Peninsular Malaysia and Sarawak that have shaped the recognition of native title.
