Women and Land: Securing Rights for Better Lives

This book focuses on recent findings from sub-Saharan Africa where researchers in 12 countries explored the topic of women and land from many angles - legal, customary, political, and economic. Researchers from NGOs, academics and grassroots activists worked together with communities on the research, exploring the experiences of women in specific contexts. The evidence gathered aims to capture the diversity of women's experiences and provides, as such, insights to policy makers to secure women's right to land.
