Abstract

Customary Law Communities, hereinafter referred to as Dayak Indigenous Peoples throughout the island of Kalimantan in general, particularly in Central Kalimantan, are currently experiencing a very fundamental problem, namely related to ownership rights to customary lands and customary forests when viewed from the point of national law. The Dayak Indigenous people who live in rural areas of Central Kalimantan, where their ancestors have been inhabiting these villages for hundreds of years. However, their customary lands and forests since 1945 up to 2019, have not yet received recognition, protection and legality from the state. This paper describes efforts to preserve life and its tradition.

Keywords: Dayak, indigenous people, customary lands, tradition
