Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests in the Context of National Food Security (onwards refered as the Guidelines on Tenure Governance) are under preparation since 2005 through the development of a universally applicable framework which can assist States in constructing their own national strategies, policies and programmes, and effectively respect, protect and fulfill the rights to use, manage and control over land, fisheries and forests.

This working document aims to provide CSOs with background information on negotiations and content for

advocacy and lobby work as well as suggestions on how to operationalize the right to land and strengthen
