Irrigation and Water Resources Management Project/Land Tenure Security Activity

General

The Land Tenure Security Activity is part of the Irrigation and Water Resource Management Project. It provide support to identify and secure land rights, including existing rights and those of farmers benefiting from the project, and to mitigate conflicts that might arise from ambiguities regarding property rights, increasing land values, and increased demand for land. The project will assist in the development of community-based land allocation procedures to assure community participation and equitable allocation of land in the project area. The capacity of local institutions responsible for allocating and managing land rights will also be strengthened.
