    The aim of this policy brief is to describe current and historical conflicts over rights to land and natural resources within and surrounding protected areas in Rwanda. We examine the roots of contested claims between citizens and the State and offer some potential avenues for resolving these conflicts in ways that consider both the priorities of the Government of Rwanda and the rights of local communities that depend on protected area resources.

    Female-headed households often experience inequalities in access to resources and income-generating opportunities. Conflicts may make women poorer. But it is important to realise that conflicts also offer an opportunity for change in which gender stereotypes shift and gender roles and identities can be renegotiated. Did genocide and civil war in Rwanda lead to new opportunities for rural women?

    Most of the world’s poor work in the “informal economy” – outside of recognized and enforceable rules.
    Thus, even though most have assets of some kind, they have no way to document their possessions
    because they lack formal access to legally recognized tools such as deeds, contracts and permits.
    The Commission on Legal Empowerment of the Poor (CLEP) is the first global anti-poverty initiative
    focusing on the link between exclusion, poverty and law, looking for practical solutions to the challenges

    This background briefing reports on a study of land access
    for returnees in Rwanda, and the impacts of land access
    policies in the post-conflict period. It also seeks to
    understand better the roles international humanitarian
    agencies and NGOs have played, and how their performance
    can be improved. It is not suggested that Rwanda is typical,
    but rather that the centrality of land issues there has thrown
    up a revealing set of broader questions.

    Large-scale land acquisitions by investors, which are often called ‘land grabs’ (see next section for de nition), can deprive rural women and communities of their livelihoods and land, increasing their food insecurity. This report argues that the current rise in land grabbing needs to be urgently addressed, and focuses
    on the actions that developing countries can take to mitigate land grabs through strengthening national land governance so that it is transparent, is accountable and protects communities’ rights.

    Women constitute the majority of small farmers, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Yet, in countries around the world, they continue to be denied the right to own the ground that they cultivate and on which they raise their families. This publication, “Women’s Land and Property Rights in Situations of Conflict and Reconstruction,” presents a diversity of views and experiences that describe the multiple strategies being used in countries worldwide to secure women's rights to land and property.

    Secure access to productive land is critical to poverty, acknowledging the complexity and
    dynamics of evolving rural realities; (b) identify
    the major implications of that relationship for
    IFAD’s strategy and programme development
    and implementation; (c) articulate guiding
    principles for mainstreaming land issues in

    processes; and (d) provide the framework for
    the subsequent development of operational
    guidelines and decision tools.
    In this policy, land refers to farmland,

    This is the first of a series of consultations on the human rights challenges and dilemmas involved in the
    acquisition and use of land – held individually or collectively - for private or state-owned business and
    economic purposes. The aim of the series of consultations is to develop a framework that leads to an end of
    human rights abuses at any stage of the process – before acquisition, during acquisition, and after operations
    have commenced and, if necessary, relocation and rehabilitation arranged, and compensation paid.

    This report is part of a broader comparative effort by As the author worked with colleagues in Rwanda,
    two other important dimensions of the Rwandan
    experience became clear. Refugee return and land
    access in Rwanda has been an extraordinarily
    complex matter, with some refugees leaving just in
    time for others returning to take up their homes and
    lands. Rwanda has important lessons to teach us
    about the need to maintain flexibility in dealing with
    complexity, and raises questions about whether

    Africa’s Great Lakes Region has in recent years experienced
    political strife, armed conflict and population displacements
    with severe humanitarian consequences. While these events
    have clearly revolved around political struggles for the control
    of the state, recent research has pointed to the significance
    of access to renewable natural resources as structural causes
    and sustaining factors in struggles for power in the region.
    Contested rights to land and natural resources are significant,
