Community land and natural resource rights

On 23 September, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (DME and DDE), in cooperation with LANDac organized a lecture & lunch about community land and natural resource rights. The meeting was a follow-up of an international conference held on 19 and 20 September in Interlaken, Switzerland. The meeting addressed scaling-up strategies to secure community land and resource rights. Peter Veit, interim Director or the Institutions and Governance Program at the World Resources Institute, and Duncan Pruett, Land Advisor at Oxfam Novib, presented the main outcomes of the conference in Interlaken and presented follow-up activities during a lecture hosted at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
