A l’instar de la plupart des pays sahéliens, l’économie sénégalaise reste encore très dépendante de l’agriculture. Celle-ci peut être décomposée en trois volets dont l’importance varie d’une zone écogéographique à une autre.

In Uganda, Tanzania, and Kenya, a decentralized approach to land administration promises more accessible dispute resolution and a better deal for women. Among the challenges however, are old social attitudes that pre-empt discussion about women’s right to control land.

Several studies have shown that the land registration and certification reform in Ethiopia has been implemented at an impressive speed, at a low-cost, and with significant impacts on investment, land productivity, and land rental market activity.

The study draws on a unique household panel, covering the period up to eight years after the implementation of the reform.

While there is no right to land codified in international human rights law, the Convention for the Elimination of All forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), provides for women’s right to own and inherit property without discrimination on the basis of sex. Afghanistan ratified CEDAW in 2003, without reservations.

International discussions on REDD+ and climate change have explicitly addressed the needs of indigenous peoples.

This brief explores how REDD+ planning and implementation can and should enhance the conditions of rural women in Asia and the Pacific.

Development projects conceived now are rarely expected to have a life of more than five years, perhaps ten years at most. Looking back over more than twenty years of project experience in community forestry - itself grounded on an integrated development project of a similar time span - is thus a rare opportunity. The project has sought to promote social change in favor of the poor and disadvantaged, and it was recognized both by those involved in the project and by independent evaluators that this is not rapidly achieved
