Abstract

This study began with the empirical fact that in 2019, the state recognized and legalized the Imbo Putui customary forest in Kenegerian Petapahan, Kampar Regency. Based on these empirical facts, this study aimed to explore the strategies adopted by the Kenegerian Petapahan indigenous people in obtaining recognition and legality from the state and the challenges faced in fighting for recognition from the state. The research method used was a qualitative approach. Data collection was carried out through in-depth interviews and documentation studies. The results of this study indicated that the strategy adopted by the Kenegerian Petapahan indigenous people was to collaborate with various parties, especially with Non-Governmental Organizations, the Petapahan village government, and the local government of Kampar Regency. Finally, this collaboration was carried out to map the customary territories and customary forests of Imbo Putui, identify customary history, and conduct policy advocacy.
