Private land use restrictions have been used for environmental management and are increasingly being considered for biodiversity conservation purposes.

    [From the Executive Summary] Many poor communities depend on women to grow most of the food they eat, yet women farmers struggle with a severe lack of extension services, credit, inputs, and productive assets. Merely by ensuring women farmers get the same access to these resources as men, the G20 could lift 100 million people out of hunger.

    A joint Transparency International and FAO Working Paper draws attention on corruption in land tenure and administration.

These developments have strained the rules, processes and institutions that determine which land resources are used, by whom, for how long and under what conditions. As evident around the globe, where land governance is deficient, high levels of corruption often flourish.
