Women’s land trusts

Women’s land trusts are nonprofit organizations dedicated to acquiring, protecting, and managing land to support women’s rights, economic independence, and community well-being. They often focus on conserving women-led farms, safe spaces, or culturally significant sites, ensuring these areas remain accessible and in use for future generations. By securing land through donation or purchase, they help reduce barriers women face in land ownership, promote gender equity, and foster community resilience. These trusts serve as guardians of women’s heritage and resources, empowering women and increasing their influence over land and related assets.
