Securing land and resource tenure is the foundation of the work we do.
Land insecurity is the greatest threat to communal lifestyles and livelihoods, and a priority for pastoralists and hunter-gatherers. UCRT uses legal frameworks that support and uphold community rights to access and manage resources, supporting communities to formally secure rights through collective land titles (such as CVLs and CCROs). This provides important legal recognition which is critical for enabling communities to defend their rights when or if they are under threat. We believe that secured land is the critical foundation for pursuing traditional lifestyles, building livelihood strategies, reducing resource conflicts, and adapting to climate change.
