How to Support Women’s Land Rights in Mozambique? Approaches and Lessons Learnt in the Work of Four Main Organisations
This report presents experiences and discusses the challenges involved in different organizations’ approaches to support women’s rights to land in Mozambique. It reviews approaches developed and lessons learned by four Norwegian-supported organizations: the Norwegian People’s Aid, FAO, CLUSA and Forum Mulher. These are all involved in projects aiming to protect, bring into effect, and promote the local implementation of women’s equal rights to land, as recognized in the Constitution and in the Mozambican Land Law of 1997. Their work is carried out in a context characterised by increasing interest in land from external investors, and increasing pressure on land and natural resources in many parts of Mozambique.
