  • Land Rights Monitoring and Evaluation

    A COMMITMENT TO RIGOROUS MONITORING AND EVALUATION UNDERGIRDS LANDESA'S WORK. THIS PROCESS FACILITATES INTERNAL LEARNING FOR FUTURE PROJECTS AND IN MANY CASES EXPANDS THE UNDERSTANDING OF LAND-RELATED INTERVENTIONS AMONG THE GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY. LANDESA FURTHER DISSEMINATES PROJECT LEARNING, ELEVATES THE ISSUE OF LAND RIGHTS, AND CULTIVATES NEW DONOR RESOURCES THROUGH STRATEGIC COMMUNICATIONS EFFORTS. THESE ACTIVITIES BUILD AWARENESS AND EXPAND UNDERSTANDING OF THE IMPORTANCE OF LAND RIGHTS AS A DEVELOPMENT INTERVENTION. LANDESA'S CORPORATE ENGAGEMENT PROGRAM DEVELOPS TOOLS AND RESOURCES TO HELP COMPANIES SHAPE LAND POLICIES THAT ALIGN WITH INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS AND BEST PRACTICES, LEADING TO BETTER OUTCOMES FOR LOCAL COMMUNITIES.
