9 A regional summary of the six country papers was presented and discussed at the regional workshop “Engaging National Human Rights Institutions Toward the Promotion of Land Rights as Human Rights” (held on 15-16 November 2018 in Bangkok, Thailand). This publication thus contains the regional summary and the abridged country land conflict monitoring reports. ANGOC is grateful to the authors, LWA partners, as well as the editorial and production teams for preparing this publication. Our thanks also to the International Land Coalition (ILC) for its financial contribution for this knowledge product. Finally, through this publication, we honor those whose lives, limbs, livelihoods, safety and sense of normalcy have been taken away by violence. Let this be an expression of solidarity with the families and communities whose tenure over land remain insecure due to land and resource conflicts. With every case and story digested, the lives of people amidst their contested landscapes intensifies the desire to provide broader and more meaningful opportunities for claim-making. Though their claims remain challenged, it is our hope that we may all find recourse in peaceful means of struggle. Rohini Reddy Chairperson Chet Charya Vice Chairperson Nathaniel Don E. Marquez Executive Director Foreword recommended actions in addressing such conflicts, as formulated during the country consultation processes.
