Hero image

The Land Tenure Security Advantage presents an overview of IFAD’s engagement in securing land tenure for the rural poor, specifically through the lens of its mainstreaming priorities for inclusive and sustainable rural transformation: gender equality and women’s empowerment, youth employment, indigenous peoples, and climate change and the environment.

The report first presents the importance of land tenure for global commitments relevant to IFAD’s mandate, together with some important challenges. It then explains how IFAD is tackling those challenges.

Five case studies from each of IFAD’s regions of intervention illustrate IFAD’s support for land tenure security in practice. Lastly, the final section looks ahead to new initiatives.
