Securing Land rights takes up themes at the centre of socio-political debates throughout the African continent.
Land in much of rural Africa is communally held, a system that provides security of livelihood and a social safety net, but is not immune to appropriation by government or injustices such as the eviction of women from the Land on the death of their husbands..
These relate to national struggles over access to land, Land distribution, Land rights and security of tenure.
