LAND-at-scale Burkina Faso Scaling up Land Governance for Food Security
General
Burkina Faso is a country dealing with many crises: food insecurity, climate vulnerability and massive population displacement. Land plays a critical factor in all these crises. The fast-growing population, degradation of land as well as widespread migration of the population across Burkina Faso are putting rampant pressures on land. The country is heavily dependent on agriculture, which employs 80% of the population. Despite this, the country deals with significant food security issues. With emerging patterns of high temperatures and pockets of drought, the country is very vulnerable to climate shocks. As is observed in many crises, vulnerable groups are hit hardest by the consequences. Women and youth particularly, suffer disproportionality. They suffer from marginalization through customary practices, which leads to increased vulnerability to the factors above and has led to decreased access to land, or even land dispossession. Project objective To improve food security and the resilience of women and youth in the country by securing their access to land and by strengthening land governance and management practices. Project strategies - Raising awareness on land rights among relevant stakeholders; - Participatory registration of land titles with special reference to women and youth; - Optimizing land management practices of secured land of women and youth to address challenges related to land degradation and/or food insecurity; - Monitoring and learning on the experiences of the other components and formulating recommendations for more sustainable land governance.
LAND-at-scale Mali - Boosting local capacity to manage land conflict and protect customary rights
General
Land tensions and conflicts have always existed in Mali. Formal and customary law co-exist, causing a legal duality and ambiguity. Competition over land and natural resources is growing, and so are land-related disputes. Over 90% of smallholder farmers and pastoralists access land through customary tenure systems. Considering the large role customs play in rural areas, formal legal recognition of these customary rights is important. At the same time, the patrilineal customary systems undermine the position of women and youth. Land Commissions form a key structure in Mali and play a key role when it comes to customary land tenure management as well as land conflict resolution. However, only 30% of the communes have established a Land Commission, and their functioning is not monitored on a systematic basis. Project objective The goal of the intervention is to promote stability, food security, climate resilient agricultural development and natural resources management by strengthening security of access to and rights over land and natural resources, with special attention for inclusivity (especially women and pastoralists), through establishing and capacitating Land Commissions. Project strategies - Formalizing a coordination mechanism for building capacity towards sustainable, inclusive and transparent Land Commissions. - Providing a systematic approach for validating and sharing capacity building for Land Commissions, with a focus on mediation and inclusivity. - Setting up an independent monitoring and evaluation system of Land Commissions. - Establishing a network and exchange organization for Land Commissions.
