practice (Formalisation of customary land)

tenure and this is largely unregistered.

lack capacity, grossly under-resourced, lack
necessary facilities to effectively perform their
duties.

formalization of customary land

and practice (Gender specific)
• Deeply entrenched discriminatory social
norms against women’s land rights

women in an affordable and systematic
manner to ensure that gender inequality is
diminished rather than concretized
