Komnas HAM Proposes Human Rights-Based Roadmap for Resolving Agrarian Conflicts

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - The National Commission on Human Rights (Komnas HAM) has proposed a human rights-based roadmap for addressing agrarian conflicts to the National Agrarian Reform Body (BRAN).

Komnas HAM Chair Anis Hidayah stated that the roadmap is expected to guide BRAN in expediting the resolution of agrarian conflicts while preventing similar issues from recurring.

"As I mentioned, regarding the follow-up, we will discuss this further, as one of the things we officially presented earlier is the human rights-based roadmap for handling agrarian conflicts," Anis said after meeting with BRAN Head Dedi Prasetyo at the Komnas HAM office in Jakarta on Friday (23/10/2026).

According to him, the roadmap includes various aspects, ranging from institutional reform, governance, to legal reform.

Additionally, the roadmap encompasses a human rights-based approach that is hoped to be applied by BRAN in addressing agrarian conflicts.

"One of the strategies proposed by Komnas HAM, which we have prepared for about two years, contains a substantial amount regarding institutional reform, governance, legal reform, and more, including how to prevent agrarian conflicts from recurring," Anis stated.

Anis explained that agrarian conflicts have been one of the most frequent types of complaints received and handled by the institution.

"Over the past three years, Komnas HAM has received complaints regarding agrarian conflict cases totaling 2,700 cases. There are various patterns, and later Mr. Prabianto and Mr. Saurlin can explain in more detail," he added.
