Since 2014, the Mekong Region Land Governance Project (MRLG) has been dedicated to improving land tenure security for smallholder farmers in Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Vietnam. Phases 1 and 2 focused on diverse land governance issues and partnerships. In contrast, Phase 3 focuses on policy implementation and household-level impacts through collaborations with reform actors. The project aims to ensure equitable land access for smallholder women and men farmers, with customary tenure recognition and responsible agricultural investment at its core. Climate change and gender considerations are integrated across all thematic areas, advancing the initiative toward sustainable and inclusive land governance. The MRLG Project Implementation Unit (PIU) office coordinates efforts from Laos, with sub-offices in Cambodia, Myanmar, and Vietnam.
