塞内加尔减少土地保有权中性别不平等的工具、机制和举措目录（英）2024

Industry Overview - The report focuses on initiatives aimed at reducing gender inequalities in land tenure in Senegal, particularly in rural areas where women face significant challenges in accessing and controlling land [17][20] - Women in Senegal account for 70% of the rural working population and contribute significantly to agricultural production, yet only 6% own farmland and 2.5% own housing [17] - Customary and socio-cultural practices are major barriers, with over 60% of obstacles to women's land access attributed to these norms [44] Core Tools and Initiatives - The report identifies 15 initiatives categorized into two main groups: promoting women's access to land and promoting women's participation in land governance [40] - Tools for promoting women's access to land include integrated capacity building, quota systems, financial support, and helping women make productive use of land [41][44][64][76] - Tools for promoting women's participation in land governance include setting up joint consultation frameworks, expanded land commissions, and gender-sensitive land governance charters [88][93] Key Findings - Integrated approaches combining awareness-raising, training, and advocacy have shown positive results, with women gaining better understanding of their land rights and securing land allocations [44][53] - Quota systems in public land development projects have enabled some women to access land, but the effectiveness remains limited, with access rates around 5-6% [64][65] - Financial support for women in land tenure procedures, such as reducing demarcation fees, has facilitated land access but is highly dependent on project funding and mayors' sensitivity to gender equity [75][77] Impact and Sustainability - Over 20,000 women have benefited from documented initiatives, with significant improvements in income, land access, and knowledge of farming practices [36][37] - Initiatives integrating multiple tools, such as awareness-raising combined with financial support, have achieved greater impact in securing land for women [110] - Sustainability depends on local authorities' commitment, community participation, and the integration of gender-sensitive approaches into broader agricultural projects [53][101] Recommendations - Increase the quota for women in public land development projects to at least 30% and institutionalize this through specific regulations [71] - Strengthen women's leadership and capacity through training in social negotiation techniques and strategic alliances with opinion leaders [59] - Institutionalize participatory land governance frameworks through local charters to ensure sustainability and prevent gains from being reversed by changes in municipal teams [104]
