Abstract:

"Gender equality is one of the ten core principles of the Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests in the Context of National Food Security. This guide aims to assist in its implementation through the achievement of responsible gender-equitable governance of land tenure. The guide focuses on equity and on how land tenure can be governed in ways that address the different needs and priorities of women and men. Gender-equitable governance of land tenure ensures that women and men can participate equally in their relationships to land, through both formal institutions and informal arrangements for land administration and management. The guide provides advice on mechanisms, strategies and actions that can be adopted to improve gender equity in the processes, institutions and activities of land tenure governance."--Publisher's description.

Özet

On 11 May 2012, the Committee on World Food Security endorsed the Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests in the Context of National Food Security. Based on the principles of sustainable development and in recognition of land's centrality to development, these guidelines are intended to contribute to global and national efforts towards the eradication of hunger and poverty by promoting secure tenure rights and equitable access to land, fisheries and forests.

Gender equality is one of the ten core principles for implementation of the Guidelines and is closely tied to three others - human dignity, non-discrimination, and equity and justice. This technical guide on Governing Land for Women and Men aims to assist implementation of the Guidelines' principle of gender equality through the achievement of responsible gender-equitable governance of land tenure.

The guide focuses on equity and on how land tenure can be governed in ways that address the different needs and priorities of women and men. It moves away from long-standing debates about gender equality in access to land, towards the mainstreaming of gender issues to achieve more gender-equitable participation in the processes and institutions that underlie all decision-making about land. It includes sections on policy-making including monitoring indicators, gender-equitable land governance and other legal issues, capacity development for gender-equitable land tenure institutions, and technical issues such as planning, valuation, taxation and reform.
