ABOUT THE TOOLKIT
STRENGTHENING WOMEN’S RIGHTS TO COMMON LANDS
Download the full toolkit with all the case studies to see all approaches being used to advance and focus on gender justice and women’s leadership within the community land rights movement.
Women are a significant constituency of the 2.5 billion people who depend upon common land for their lives and livelihoods, and yet they are also disproportionately affected by internal and external threats to their right to land.
This toolkit showcases seven approaches where ILC members have successfully strengthened women’s rights to common lands. Join us as we take a look at cases around the world which reflect diverse political, social, and cultural contexts around land use. This toolkit reflects seven approaches which members of the International Land Coalition’s member network have successfully leveraged to strengthen women’s rights to common lands.
Read, learn and get inspired to adapt these approaches to your own contexts and help us advance gender justice and women’s leadership in the community land rights movement.
