Abstract:
Expansion of oil palm plantations often violates local people’s land rights. This has already
resulted in thousands of conflicts between communities and companies. For responsible
palm oil production, the EU RED should demand that companies facilitate communities to
document their land boundaries before plantation establishment. This can be done
through community mapping.
