Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure

The Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure are a set of international principles aimed at improving how land and resources are managed. Developed by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), these guidelines encourage fair and equitable rights for all, especially marginalized groups. They promote transparency, accountability, and sustainable practices in land governance to help prevent conflict and promote food security. By supporting responsible tenure practices, the guidelines aim to enhance the well-being of communities and contribute to sustainable development globally.
