Tenure Security for the Poor

Tenure security for the poor means having legal recognition or assurance of their rights to occupy and use their land or property. It helps protect them from eviction or arbitrary loss of their homes and access to resources. When people feel secure in their land rights, they are more likely to invest in improving their property, adopt sustainable practices, and have better long-term stability. Essentially, tenure security provides a foundation of trust and stability, empowering the poor to use their land effectively and improve their livelihoods without the fear of losing their homes or resources unfairly.
