Land Access for Women

To address these complexities, the Land Access for Women pilot program will combine commune-level legal rights counseling and education with advocacy efforts. Based in two provinces in Vietnam – Hung Yen in the North and Long An in the South – the program will strengthen the reach and efficacy of land rights for farmers, particularly women farmers. Research indicates that community-based paralegals are invaluable resources for poor and disadvantages persons to access legal systems to resolve property disputes.
