In recognition of the central role of effective land governance in achieving equitable and sustainable socioeconomic development, the African Union Declaration on Land Issues and Challenges in Africa commits Me mber States to review land policies and strengthen institutions, with a view to providing equitable access to land for all land users and to strengthen land tenure security of women. It also emphasizes the need for targeted measures for strengthening women’s land tenure security. In line with global and regional commitments on women’s land tenure security, this project is expected to contribute to strengthening women’s land tenure security in selected beneficiary countries in Africa by enhancing the capaci ty of policymakers to create an enabling policy and legal environment for women’s land rights, thereby enhancing women’s resilience to shocks. Specifically, policymakers in the selected beneficiary countries will be capacitated to design or review and implement gender-responsive policy, legislative and institutional reforms. Interventions will employ a nuanced and integrated approach to account for the heterogeneity of women and enable women to benefit from opportunities provided through access to other complementary services, such as enhanced agricultural inputs and services.
