The Land Tenure Security

Land tenure security refers to the confidence and legal assurance that individuals or communities have over their land rights. It means they can use, enjoy, and pass on the land without the threat of illegal eviction, disputes, or losing their ownership. When land tenure is secure, people are more likely to invest in sustainable agriculture, housing, and community development, knowing their rights are protected by law. This security promotes stability, economic growth, and social well-being, especially for vulnerable groups who might otherwise face land disputes or loss of access to land due to unclear or insecure rights.
