Cada fin y principio de año traen consigo el interés por mirar los principales acontecimientos del período transcurrido y, en la misma medida, en perspectiva de futuro inmediato. Aunque no siempre se pueden agotar los temas, el ejercicio ayuda, al menos, a intentar delimitar las ambiciosas metas que nos proponemos y, al mismo tiempo, aquilatar las cualidades de procesos, a veces demasiado largos, con que transcurren muchas de ellas. Fieles a esa tradición, en el IPDRS les proponemos, como cada año, una mirada retrospectiva a vuelo de pájaro.

El objetivo de este artículo es hacer una propuesta metodológica para incorporar la perspectiva de género en las herramientas de planeación de la Ley de Víctimas y Restitución de Tierras a nivel territorial.

In 1998 GIZ (former GTZ) published the “Guiding Principles on Land Tenure in Development Cooperation” in the form of a handbook. The publication enjoyed a warm reception and quickly became a source book among land experts and practitioners in Germany and abroad.

But the current population growth rate, combined with rapid urban development and natural resources degradation, have inevitably changed the game.

The goal of the Rangelands Initiative is increased tenure security of local rangeland users through improved implementation of enabling policy and legislation. By connecting, mobilising and influencing, the Initiative strengthens ILC members’ activities in-country and across its continental platforms.

Moral Bankruptcy: World Bank Reinvents Tainted Aid Program for Ethiopia exposes the shameful reinvention of one of the Bank’s most problematic programs in Ethiopia. The report also reveals that the US Treasury violated congressional law when voting in favor of this program.

2016 foi um ano conturbado para o povo brasileiro. Sob um disfarçado manto de legalidade, desferiu-se um solene golpe contra a democracia, destituindo um governo legítimo, apesar de caótico, eleito pela maioria do povo brasileiro. O que se buscava mesmo era entronizar nos altos escalões do poder central brasileiro um programa de governo com foco na restrição ao máximo de direitos conquistados pelas classes populares e na preservação de privilégios e lucro de quem sempre comandou os destinos de nossa nação.
