    The Land Use Consolidation Act (LUC) was introduced in 2008 and is an important
    component of agricultural policy in Rwanda. As part of the Government of Rwanda’s
    broader Crop Intensification Program (CIP), LUC entails participating farmers
    consolidating aspects of their operations with neighboring farmers, while retaining
    individual ownership of their parcels. LUC farmers also agree to grow a single priority
    crop that has been identified by the Ministry of Agriculture (MINAGRI) as best suited to

    This paper examines land tenancy systems and tenant contracts in Rwanda, with
    respect to socioeconomic contexts. Our research in southern and eastern Rwanda produced
    data suggesting that land borrowing with fixed rents has been generally practiced, and that rent
    levels have been low in comparison to expected revenues from field production. In the western
    areas of coffee production, however, the practice of sharecropping has recently appeared. This
    system is advantageous to landowners, as they are able to acquire half of the harvests; in

    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

    Rwanda

    In Rwanda, two factors make land a highly important and contested issue. First,
    Rwanda has the highest person-to-land ratio in Africa. This creates tremendous
    pressure on land in a country where most of the population lives in rural areas, and
    where agriculture remains the central economic activity. Second, Rwanda is recovering
    from massive population shifts caused by decades of ethnic strife and the 1994 civil war
    and genocide, which resulted in displaced populations and overlapping land claims.

    This research, entitled "The Impact of Gendered Legal Rights to Land on the Prevalence and Nature of Intra- and Inter-Household Disputes" set out to interrogate the changing landscape of gendered land rights in Rwanda, and to examine the impact of the statutory changes introduced by laws governing land, inheritance, succession and matrimonial property passed between 1999 and 2013.

    Rwanda

    Before 1999, land rights in Rwanda were governed by three regimes: customary
    (traditional) law, colonial laws still in effect, and laws enacted after independence. In each of
    these, men were privileged in ownership and control of land whereas women were excluded
    or had fewer rights.
    The 1999 Succession Law restructured and harmonized land ownership in Rwanda,
    superseding all prior legislation. A significant portion of these changes related to gender
    equality. Equal rights to umunani (umunani or ascending partition is an act accomplished by

    Between October 2014 and October 2015, Radio Ishingiro with the support of USAID
    Land Project implemented a Communications Campaign focused on influencing the
    attitudes and mindsets of men and boys about gender-equal land rights to overcome
    traditional norms and beliefs that hinder women from exercising their rights to land. In
    particular, the campaign focused on overcoming traditional beliefs and norms that
    hinder women from exercising their rights to inter vivos gifts of land (“umunani”)1

    In Africa, land has an emotional and mystical value beyond the economic consideration and
    represents the social security and the continuity and independence of a family. In much of rural
    Africa, land constitutes the primary source from which millions of people derive their daily
    livelihoods (Bhandari 2001)
    1
    . In sub-Saharan Africa, women contribute between 60-80% of labor
    used to produce food for both household consumption and sale to agricultural production while
    women’s access to and control over land in Africa remains minimal (FAO, 1998).

    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
