The increasing importance of the Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) in Tanzania, where 17 WMAs are now functioning and 22 others are in various stages of development, begs the question of what successes have been achieved and what challenges remain to be addressed if this Community-Based Conservation model is to be sustained and even scaled up. There has not been a country-wide evaluation of WMAs since the pilot-phase evaluation in 2007 at a time when most WMAs were too new to yield firm projections for the long term.

While many people in the developing world lack secure property rights and access to adequate resources, women have less access to land than men do in all regions and in many countries (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations [FAO], 2011b). Women across the developing world are consistently less likely to own land, have fewer rights to land, and the land they do own or have access to is of lower quality in comparison to men
(FAO, 2011b).

The USAID's Investor Survey on Land Rights aimed to provide a more systematic understanding of the drivers of tenure risk to land-based investments from the perspective of the private sector, and of how investors and operators assess, mitigate and are affected by such risks. The findings from the survey will provide readers with useful insights into the current treatment of land tenure risks in land-based investments.

En vista de la desigualdad en el acceso a la tierra y a servicios sociales en Colombia que afecta a las mujeres rurales, y de la baja participación de mujeres en programas del Ministerio de Agricultura y Desarrollo Rural (MADR) y del Banco Agrario, el MADR solicitó a USAID y al Programa de Tierras y Desarrollo Rural (PTDR) de Tetra Tech ARD, realizar un estudio para entender cuáles son los cuellos de botella que afectan principalmente a las mujeres para acceder a los diferentes programas del Ministerio y del Banco Agrario.
