Resource information
The Global Programme 'Responsible Land Policy' (GPRLP) is part of the Special Initiative 'One World, No Hunger' of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), which aims to reduce extreme poverty and hunger.
The Ethiopian module of the GP “Support to Responsible Agricultural Investments II (S2RAI II)” aims to improve the access to land for the beneficiaries in the regional states of Benishangul-Gumuz (BG), Gambella and Amhara. It supports key stakeholders in implementing internationally recognized principles and guidelines for land governance and responsible investments in land. S2RAI II includes the component “Responsible Governance of Investments in Land (RGIL)” in Ethiopia, which is co-financed by the EU and BMZ, and aims at ensuring that investments in land are fair, productive and contribute to sustainable land management. To improve the relationships and resolve the conflicts between the main stakeholders in investment, namely between the investors, the impacted communities and the respective government bodies, the project supports the set-up of a regular exchange platform, the “Community-Investor-Government Fora (CIGF)”.
