Description
"We will not recognize the State, unless the State recognizes us" With this famous statement, the Indigenous Peoples Alliance of the Archipelago (AMAN), have challenged the Indonesian Government to reverse its policy of integration and recognise the rights of indigenous peoples to govern themselves according to their customs. This book records the results of a series of community-level workshops, organised jointly by AMAN, the World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) and FPP, to examine the challenges raised by this demand and how indigenous communities can find their own solutions in line with their right to self-determination.
