This brief discusses a pilot intervention in Rwanda led by the Belgian
NGO, RCN Justice & Démocratie, with support from the International
Development Law Organization (IDLO) and the Belgian Government. A
more detailed and complete discussion of the pilot is given in Lankhorst
and Veldman (2011a). The pilot aimed to transform the customary
resolution of disputes involving women’s land claims concerning
inheritance or marital relations. The intervention examined whether
and to what extent it was possible to increase the scope for acceptance

Le retour des réfugiés de 1959, la politique de regroupement de l'habitat adoptée en
1996, la disette qui frappe le pays depuis 1999, la faible pluviosité qui prévaut dans le
pays depuis deux ans après le phénomène el nino, conduisent à une prise de
conscience nouvelle de ce qu'il faut appeler la question foncière, de ses relations
avec la production agricole dans le cadre de l'option de sécurité alimentaire. Les
conditions dans lesquelles la problématique foncière s'est progressivement imposée -

This paper reports the findings of an in-depth case study of a highly densely populated area in the Northwest of Rwanda
which has been conducted during the period 1988-1993. It
demonstrates that acute competition for land in a context
characterized by too slow expansion of non-agricultural income
opportunities has resulted in increasingly unequal land distribution
and rapid processes of land dispossession through both operation
of the (illegal) land market and evolution of indigenous tenure -

Across equatorial and east Africa, climate change is affecting the frequency, intensity
and variability of regional climate patterns.1 Changes in rainfall patterns, temperatures
and storm intensity are having significant effects on national economies, regional
infrastructure, land use and local livelihoods. These changes are forcing national and
local governments to adjust and adapt how they plan, prepare and implement day to
day operations today and larger visions for the future. The ability of governmental -

The aim of this policy brief is to describe current and historical conflicts over rights to land and natural resources within and surrounding protected areas in Rwanda. We examine the roots of contested claims between citizens and the State and offer some potential avenues for resolving these conflicts in ways that consider both the priorities of the Government of Rwanda and the rights of local communities that depend on protected area resources.

This background briefing reports on a study of land access
for returnees in Rwanda, and the impacts of land access
policies in the post-conflict period. It also seeks to
understand better the roles international humanitarian
agencies and NGOs have played, and how their performance
can be improved. It is not suggested that Rwanda is typical,
but rather that the centrality of land issues there has thrown
up a revealing set of broader questions. -

In setting out principles and internationally agreed standards, the “Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land and Other Natural Resources” intend to provide practical guidance to states, civil society and the private sector on responsible governance of tenure. The Voluntary Guidelines (VG) will constitute a framework for policies, legislation and programs, but will not establish legally binding obligations nor replace existing national or international laws, treaties or agreements (FAO 2009c).

Conflits armés et crises alimentaires contribuent à leur manière à urbaniser
l’Afrique sub-saharienne lorsque les villes jouent un rôle de refuge et que les combats
se déroulent à la campagne. Malgré l’évacuation de ses habitants lors de la chute du
régime Habyarimana en 1994, la capitale du Rwanda n’a pas démenti ce schéma et
s’est vite repeuplée une fois le génocide terminé. La différence est qu’elle est
désormais tenue par des élites tutsi et que les bouleversements de l’année 1994 ont
