Why Securing Entitlements, Land & Property Rights Matters for Women?

 

Securing land, property, and entitlements is crucial for women's empowerment, economic independence and social equality. These rights provide women with stability, improve their livelihoods and help bridge the gender gap enabling them to contribute more effectively to their families, communities and society as a whole.

 

Our Approach 

 

Our approach to securing women's land and property rights is comprehensive, addressing both legal and social aspects. We work closely with communities, government officials, legal professionals and local organizations to offer holistic support and advocacy, ensuring that women have access to the rights and resources they need to thrive.

Our Interventions

 

We empower women through legal support and education, partnering with experts to enhance their legal literacy. Our training programs focus on key areas such as negotiation skills, financial literacy and sustainable land use practices. We also engage in community mobilization through discussions, mapping activities and collaboration with local groups to raise awareness and build solidarity. Our Swabhoomi Kendra (paralegal) provides women with legal aid on land-related issues, offering mediation, case analysis and support for resolving disputes. In addition, we advocate for policy change, conducting research on regional challenges and presenting data-driven recommendations for more gender-sensitive land governance.
