Everything Connects to Land Rights
Secure land rights are critical for achieving gender equality, just as closing gender gaps supports stronger land rights. Sustainable land use is key to mitigating and adapting to climate change, just as climate directly impacts one’s ability to use and remain on their land. To bring about holistic, systemic change, we must come together across sectors as a global community.
