Iraq is one of the easternmost countries of the Arab Region. It is bordered to the north by Turkey, to the east by Iran, to the west by Syria and Jordan, and to the south by Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.

Land tenure rights influence the way that land and natural resources are used and can impact directly on the environment and climate change.

Land tenure is a particularly important issue in Asia, a region most prone to natural disasters and the impacts of climate change, and home to the world’s poorest who depend on land for their life and livelihoods.However, public understanding of the links between climate change, disasters, and land tenure is still very limited, even among development organizations.This issue brief is edited from the publication, “No Time to Waste: Climate action through secure land rights and sustainable land use,” that seeks to train the spotlight on specific issues of land tenure, land use and climate cha

Informal Land Subdivisions And Their Effects On Spatial Development In Peri Urban Areas:The Case Of Kichangani Suward In Kigamboni Municipality, Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania

BackgroundStudies which have been conducted so far have focused on the processes of land use/cover changes in different areas at regional and global scale. Little is known about factors that influence land use/ cover dynamics at finer scales such as Melela ward in Mvomero district, Morogoro, Tanzania. Goals and ObjectivesThe overall objective of the study therefore was to evaluate the land use land cover dynamics and their impacts on pastoralism in Melela.

It is critical to have land policies that facilitate access to and effective control of land and other natural resources to achieve inclusive growth and eradicate poverty. It is well known that discrimination in land rights occurs globally, both in formal and customary settings. The reason for this is that land rights are either strong or weak and are held by a variety of groups of people.

Context and backgroundThe intensive use of land is regarded as the major source of agricultural growth in many developing nations, even though this intensive usage has been seen as one of the most substantial human impacts on the global environment. However, the intensification of agricultural land use has led to many environmental and social challenges.
