Tribal Land Act

The Tribal Land Act is a piece of legislation that governs the ownership and management of land designated for tribal communities, primarily in countries like Botswana. It recognizes the rights of indigenous groups to control their ancestral lands, ensuring that these areas are managed according to traditional practices. The Act aims to protect tribal land from unlawful appropriation and promote sustainable development within tribal areas. It establishes procedures for allocating and using land, fostering economic empowerment and social development while respecting the unique cultural heritage of tribal communities.
