No dia 9 de janeiro de 2024, o presidente do Equador Daniel Noboa declarou que há um “conflito armado interno” no país, autorizando a militarização do território e a intervenção militar norte-americana no Equador. Com o pretexto de “guerra contra o narcotráfico”, o governo equatoriano pretende promover uma agenda neoliberal que favorece o extrativismo e os interesses das elites privadas. Além disso, tem legitimado a repressão e criminalização da população racializada e dos defensores do território, da natureza e dos direitos humanos.
As part of a scoping study titled Land Governance for Climate Resilience: A review and case studies from LAND-at-scale projects headed by Richard Sliuzas, Emeritus Professor, University of Twente, IOM explored how climate plays a role in the UN-led Saameynta Joint Programme in Somalia. In this context, climate change is increasingly recognized as a multiplier of insecurity and fragility, where climate-related sudden and slow-onset disasters are driving people to leave their land and migrate. While migrating allows people to find alternative livelihoods and enhance their climate resilience, it can also be associated with instances of maladaptation to climate change. As such, this case highlights durable solutions in climate-driven urban sprawl in Baidoa.

Antes de a HakiMadini e a WOLTS chegarem a Mundarara, era como se as mulheres de nossa aldeia estivessem dormindo. Nenhuma de nós tinha conhecimento de nossos direitos à terra, muitas de nós eram maltratadas por nossos maridos e nunca falávamos em reuniões.
Chad is at the verge of an emerging land tenure crisis. As observed in many countries in Africa, formal and customary tenure systems overlap. Customary tenure systems, that generally prevail in rural areas, differ from region to region, with each its own needs and practices. Land conflicts are abundant, caused by degradation and transformation of land surfaces caused by climate change, as well as land investments by domestic investors with disputed legitimacy.
