Strengthening Land Governance System for Smallholder Farmers in Malawi

The project is developed around three clusters of activities: 1) awareness raising for district and local level structures on land governance instruments and frameworks (development and testing of gender sensitive guidelines and procedures to be used in customary estates);2) development of a system to monitor the implementation of customary land governance frameworks (monitoring the application of the gender-sensitive guidelines); 3) development of explanatory, visibility and promotional materials on the land governance project.
