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.

Policy Papers & Briefs

This background briefing reports on a study of land access

policies in the post-conflict period. It also seeks to

but rather that the centrality of land issues there has thrown
up a revealing set of broader questions.
