Our work

At the Tenure Facility, our goal is simple: we work with Indigenous Peoples and local communities across the developing world so they can thrive, and expand the sustainable management and protection of their forests and lands. We have two main objectives: customary territories are made more secure by governments in targeted developing countries; and practical approaches for implementing land and forest tenure reforms are shared and leveraged by practitioners and stakeholders to enable greater support and investment in securing land rights.

Countries

In countries where land rights are implemented, Indigenous Peoples and local communities thrive and expand the sustainable management and protection of their forests and lands. Our partnerships expand across the developing world, for the betterment of themselves and the global society.
