Rights and Resources Initiative (RRI) 2013-2017
General
Rights & Resources Initiative (RRI) is a global coalition of org.s working to encourage forest land tenure, policy and economic reforms so that business reflects local development agendas and supports local livelihoods. RRI works at the country, regional and global levels, collaborating on research, advocacy and convening strategic actors. Agreement partner is Rights & Resources Group (RRG). Clear and secure land tenure for local communities is an important precondition for several aspects of development, including sustainable use of natural resources, including decreased or avoided deforestation, increased resilience, economic development and enhancement of human rights and democratic societies. Special attention to securing women’s rights is part of the intervention's design.
Objectives
Improved governance of forest areas in developing countries for poverty reduction, biodiversity conservation and climate resilience.
Sustainable management of dryland landscapes in Burkina Faso
Objectives
To achieve large-scale restoration of dryland landscapes and sustainable livelihoods in Burkina Faso through adoption of sustainable land management practices by rural communities.
Other
Note: Disbursement data provided is cumulative and covers disbursement made by the project Agency.
Target Groups
The project will strengthen the governance and management frameworks for dryland management across three landscapes that cover 10 communes. These landscapes are multi-use systems that are essential to the food security and livelihoods of the approximately people who live within them. The ecosystems of the landscapes are also vital to residents of the landscapes, and people beyond, who rely on them for food production, water management, energy and many other services. Over numerous decades, the environmental and socio-economic conditions within the project area have been heavily impacted by land degradation due to human interventions and climate change and variability. Today, these areas are facing numerous environmental problems that affect socio-economic conditions. The changes that have happened and their negative environmental impacts have significantly affected production systems (e.g., and resulted in increased conflicts over land and natural resources. Establishing effective governance and management systems for restoration and sustainable development will provide an improved means for stakeholders to dialogue and develop solutions to priority environmental problems. The project will build off traditional knowledge and scientific evidence to develop climate-proof restoration, management and natural resource use strategies that are sustainable and can be adapted to respond to changing conditions. The application of these strategies will contribute to maintaining or improving the values and functions of the landscapes’ ecosystems, improving their resilience, their ability to supply critical services and their ability to support multiple production systems. In turn this will build the adaptive capacity and resilience of local communities and the broader stakeholder community in the face of growing anthropogenic pressures and climate variability. In addition, the project will improve the capacity and resilience of local communities by strengthening the viability and sustainability of key agro-sylvo-pastoral value chains upon which the vast majority of people within the landscape rely for their food security and livelihoods. Without the intervention of this project, unsustainable practices and anthropogenic pressures will continue to negatively impact and degrade the area targeted by this project. These negative impacts will put at risk the ecological and livelihood systems upon which local communities directly depend and will increase the stressors confronting thousands of households across the region. These households will also have reduced flexibility to respond to the impacts of climate change.
Liberia Land Administration Project
General
The Project Development Objective is to strengthen the institutional capacity of the Liberia Land Authority and establish a land administration system.
Land Management Project Laos
General
Die ökonomische Entwicklung im ländlichen Raum wird in Laos durch das Fehlen gesicherter Landbesitzverhältnisse behindert. Es fehlen entsprechende gesetzliche Grundlagen, deren wirk-same Durchsetzung sowie ein effektives und modernes Katasterwesen zur Registrierung und Verwaltung von Landbesitz. ŒDas Modul leistet einen Beitrag zur konkreten Umsetzung der Landsektorreform in Laos mit Fo-kus auf eine beschleunigte Registrierung von Landtiteln in den vier Projektprovinzen, Houaphan, Xieng Khouang, Oudomxay und Sayaboury. Das Modul baut auf den Grundlagen der TZ-Maßnahmen im Rahmen des Vorhabens "Land Management und Dezentrale Planung (LMDP 1 - 3)" auf. Im Rahmen des FZ-Moduls soll die in LMDP entwickelte Katastersoftware "LaoLand-Reg" weiterentwickelt und auf die Registrierung von Landtiteln in ganz Laos erweitert werden. Auch die in LMDP entwickelten Methoden der Landtitelvergabe (z.B: Konfliktbewältigung, Media-tion) sollen in größerem Umfang angewandt und weiterentwickelt werden.
Objectives
Vergabe rechtssicherer Landtitel sowie Aufbau einer landesweiten Katasterverwaltung
RESTORE+: Addressing Landscape Restoration on Degraded Land in Indonesia and Brazil
General
The project supports sustainable land use planning in the degraded landscapes of partner countries. In Indonesia, it combines mapping campaigns (implemented by the local population) with land use and supply chain modelling. In this way, the project identifies areas that are suitable for restoration and sustainable use. It also analyses the effects on production, biodiversity, greenhouse gas emissions and society. In Brazil, the project supports existing technologies for land monitoring & modelling and the implementation of the Bonn Challenge. It also contributed to the development of the ERPD (Emission Reductions Program Document), which was submitted to the FCPF for the South Cameroon REDD+ programme. The project strengthens the South-South cooperation of the countries in terms of modelling, policy making and the monitoring of land use and degradation. The tools support the certification and transparency of sustainably oriented supply chains.
