Abstract

This study examines women’s customary land tenure in three Indigenous communities in Northern Thailand: the Thin community of Ban Kok in Nan Province, the Karen community of Huay I Khang in Chiang Mai Province, and the Lahu community of Huay Lu Luang in Chiang Rai Province. The paper explores how women view their traditional ability to access the resources necessary to secure the physical and spiritual wellbeing of their communities, and how this has changed over time.
