Togo

Le dibi-madibi est un mode de faire-valoir indirect qui permit aux populations de s’approprier rapidement l’espace dans le sud-ouest du Togo au début de l’introduction de la culture des plantations de caféiers et de cacaoyers. Ce mode de faire valoir profita aux exploitants venus pour la plupart du nord du pays. Ceux-ci acquirent le droit de propriété sur la moitié des parcelles mises en valeur. Ce droit transmissible ne peut être comparé au plan juridique aux contrats traditionnels connus au Togo.

Land reform and rural development are routinely presented as key components of the poverty reduction strategy driven by the State. The restitution programme occupies a particular place in the broader land reform programme as it specifically seeks to redress the land dispossession which took place since 1913 and to alleviate the impoverishment and suffering it caused.
