    Property rights are a cornerstone of economic development and social justice. A fundamental way of understanding the strength of property rights is through citizens' perceptions of them. Yet perceptions of tenure security have never been collected at a global scale.

    This report uses household-level data from 33, mostly developing, countries to analyse perceptions of tenure insecurity among women. We test two hypotheses: (1) that women feel more insecure than men; and (2) that increasing statutory protections for women, for instance by issuing joint named titles or making inheritance law more gender equal, increases de facto tenure security.

    Namibia, Southern Africa

    Achieving cooperation in natural resource management is always
    a challenge when incentives exist for an individual to maximise her short term
    benefits at the cost of a group. We study a public good social dilemma in water
    infrastructure provision on land reform farms in Namibia. In the context of the
    Namibian land reform, arbitrarily mixed groups of livestock farmers have to share
    the operation and maintenance of water infrastructure. Typically, water is mainly
    used for livestock production, and livestock numbers are subject to high fluctuations

    Land degradation and desertification are among the biggest environmental challenges of our time. In the last 40 years, we lost nearly a third of the world’s arable farmland due to erosion, just as the number of people to be fed from it almost doubled. That’s why the UN General Assembly declared 2015 as the International Year of Soils. And the good news is that this new report shows that while Africa remains the most severely a«ected region, the benefit of taking action across the continent outweighs the cost of implementing it: not just by a little, but by a factor of seven.
