Description

This document describes why USAID’s land and property rights programs should integrate programming to address gender-based violence (GBV) and details specific strategies. Strengthening land tenure, resource governance, and property rights, especially for women, is critical for eliminating GBV and is pivotal to USAID’s development objectives of eradicating poverty, promoting democracy and human rights, and achieving gender equality.
