Securing women's access to land : linking research and action

The report covers activities and outcomes of various projects for enhancing women’s access to land and land titles in Kenya, Mozambique, Madagascar, Nairobi and in other areas of East and Southern Africa, as well as raising awareness about women’s land rights.
