The project aims to implement part of the FAO Voluntary Guidelines for Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests in the Context of Food Security. It also fits perfectly into the framework and guidelines for land policies in Africa of the Land Policy Initiative (LPI). This project is designed to carry out the national inventory of pastoral spaces and pastoral resources and to strengthen the structures of the Rural Code and the realization of the land development plan in two regions, namely Dosso and Zinder, which benefit from the support of the Sector Development Support (PADSR) funded by the European Union under the 10th EDF. Within the context of improving food security, the project aims to implement parts of the Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of the Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests (VGGT). It is further aligned with the Framework and Guidelines on Land Policy in Africa (F&G) by the Land Policy Initiative (LPI). In particular, the project aims at securing pastoral land systems in Niger. It sets out to create a national inventory of rangelands and pastoral resources. Further, the project will strengthen the structures under the Rural Code and implement land development schemes in two areas, namely the Dosso and Zinder regions that benefit from the support of the 'Projet d'Appui au Developpement du Secteur (PADSR)' under EU funding from the 10th EDF.

The Project aims at supporting efficient first time giving out and subsequent maintenace of road addresses throughout Kosovo, by building vital components of electronic address registers and related information services

General

The project consists of three main components: •Establishing of six permanent reference stations for positioning services. These will complete the reference framework for the entire country and provide more accurate positioing. In addition, 30 GPS receivers will be acquired for surveying of property boundaries •Improvement of the IT-system for property registration. Today, this system is spread over several different components. This project will seek to harmonise the components and create one system. •Updating of property maps and register for 20% of the country where maps and register are still not up to date with new private properties

General

The main objective of the project is to support the government’s efforts to secure and improve equitable access to land and natural resources for food security and socio-economic development of agro-pastoral communities in the ASALs of Kenya. The project will adopt mainstreaming of the Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests in the context of National Food Security and the Framework and Guidelines (F&G) on Land Policy in Africa.

The project aims to increase resilience and strengthen the natural resource and economic asset base for poor rural women and men by helping smallholder tea producers increase their yields through replantation and therefore providing a source of income through new rubber plantations. The programme works with 35,000 existing tea smallholders and 15, 000 poor households involved in rubber production and processing. On land and natural resource governance, the project aims to improve tenure security and land access as the benefits will increase the role of women in the plantation sector, increase capacity building and training opportunities and increase access to on and off-farm activities. The project activities include participatory mapping and analysis.

Digitalization of documents and maps for part of Podgorica municipality for the property registration system. The Project contains two components: 1.Scanning and archiving of paper maps and documents for a part of Podgorica, Bar, Budva and Kotor municipalities, and 2.Establishing a solution for generating maps in scale 1:50 000 based on existing maps in scale 1:25 000

The programme aims to help sustainably guarantee food and nutrition security and rural households' resilience to crises in the Maradi, Tahoua and Zinder regions. It aims to increase the income of 290,000 farmer households, their resilience to external shocks, including climate change, and their access to local, urban and regional markets. Sustainable land and watershed management practices will improve water infiltration in the aquifer, reduce erosion and silting, and will thus help to mitigate the constraints and effects of climate change in watershed areas. Activities address the recovery of 10,450 ha of degraded land and 7000 ha of watershed areas, the fixation of dunes around the basins on about 2000 ha and the development of 2500 ha of silvo-pastoral area. Further it is planned to develop a small-scale irrigation system on 5000 ha land. With regard to natural resource governance, the programme will support the wide dissemination of the existing legislation, the assessment of the land tenure situation before and after programme interventions, the negotiation of sustainable management methods for the developed land and the formation or revitalization of community organizations. These activities will enhanced through the continuous support to Niger's Rural Code and to land commissions at different levels.

Preparation of new maps and the setting up a nationwide system for efficient use of satellite technology for surveying and mapping

General

The project is to increase inclusive and gender-equitable secure access and sustainable use/management of land and other natural resources in order to facilitate productive investments as well as social and economic development. In-depth assessments carried out on territorial rights and conflict dynamics will help to provide a clear understanding of the context and facilitate the formulation of effective strategies towards sustainable natural resource management (access and use). The project will also enhance institutional and community capacities to engage in land management/governance (use, access, and ownership) and related strategic dialogue.
