Awas Tingni marks the site of the historic Inter-American Court of Human Rights (IACHR) decision that issued legal recognition of property rights for the indigenous Mayagna (Sumo) community located in North Eastern Nicaragua. The titling of Awas Tingni marks a historical moment within international law that recognized that indigenous peoples had rights to property, and were therefore entitled to the human rights therein. Landownership and the right to private property was celebrated as a fundamental achievement in the progression of indigenous peoples' rights by the Bretton Woods system that argued that private property was the best mechanism to defend indigenous lands and human rights. Titled officially in 2008, Awas Tingni, and Eastern Nicaragua more broadly has faced an explosion of conflict within newly titled spaces, resulting in spatially specific forest loss. This study asks, what is the relationship between land titling processes and forest cover change? What is the spatial and temporal distribution of forest loss within titled Awas Tingni, Nicaragua? Using the open source Global Forest Cover (GFC) dataset, this study employs remote sensing analysis to distinguish the spatiality of forest loss between the years 2000 - 2016. Additionally, this study maps before, during, and after title forest loss for Awas Tingni and Eastern Nicaragua more broadly. Finally, the results of this study suggest that the legal administrative properties of land titles do not ensure that forests are protected; rather they reveal that the formalization of land titles only extends state governance and its priorities to newly titled and recognized spaces, warranting further research at the nexus of political ecology and political geography.
