Abstract

The new book 'Migration and Women’s Land Tenure Security in the Greater Mekong Sub-region' draws on country-level and ethnographic research, based on a collaboration between FAO and Chiang Mai University. The book explores how migration affects women’s land tenure security, and in turn the ways in which women’s control over land shapes patterns of migration, through case studies in a Hmong community in northern Lao PDR, a Karenni community in eastern Myanmar and a village in north-eastern Thailand.
