Landesa

Landesa is an international non-governmen­tal organization that fights rural poverty and provides opportunity and security for women and men through the power of land rights. Insecure land rights are a leading factor in extreme poverty, food insecurity, gender in­equality, conflict, environmental destruction, and sluggish economic growth. Ranked as one of the top NGOs in the world, Landesa's policy advocacy and implementation efforts have helped strengthen land rights for more than 500 million people in more than 50 countries worldwide.
