The Alliance of Indigenous Peoples of the Archipelago (AMAN) recorded at least 135 cases of land grabbing from indigenous communities in Indonesia in 2025.

According to AMAN, all these cases involved the seizure of 3.8 million hectares of indigenous land, which affected 109 indigenous communities.

"A total of 162 indigenous people became victims of violence and criminalization," AMAN said in its 2025 Year-End Report.

Of all the cases of land grabbing recorded in 2025, the majority were related to mining projects.

However, there were also various other projects involved in similar cases, from plantations to tourism.

"All indigenous lands that have not received recognition from the state are viewed as state lands that can easily be transferred to corporations for concession permits, such as mining, monoculture plantations, forestry concessions, green projects in the name of climate, and other infrastructure development," said AMAN.

Here are the details of the number of cases of land grabbing from indigenous communities in Indonesia by related projects throughout 2025, according to AMAN's data:

Mining projects: 69 cases
Plantation projects: 34 cases
Infrastructure projects: 11 cases
Forestry concessions: 11 cases
Energy projects: 5 cases
Tourism projects: 3 cases
Agricultural projects: 2 cases
