Gender and Land Tenure Reform

Gender and land tenure reform involves changing policies and practices to ensure women and marginalized groups have fair and equal access to land ownership and decision-making. Historically, land rights have often favored men, limiting women's economic independence and security. Reform aims to address these inequalities by legal recognizing women's land rights, promoting equitable land distribution, and empowering women to participate in land management. This fosters social justice, economic growth, and sustainable development, ensuring all community members benefit from land resources and have a voice in how land is used.
