    This thesis was aimed at the development of a Geographical Information System (GIS) based model to support the Rwanda Land Use and Development Master Plan. Developing sustainable land management is the main task of this master plan. Stakeholder’s involvement was of key importance. Their demands should be analysed and visualised to support discussions and the decision-making process. Spatial Multicriteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) is a proven method for land-use planning purposes. However, most land-use planning applications focus on a specific theme, such as urban development.

    This is the first of a series of consultations on the human rights challenges and dilemmas involved in the
    acquisition and use of land – held individually or collectively - for private or state-owned business and
    economic purposes. The aim of the series of consultations is to develop a framework that leads to an end of
    human rights abuses at any stage of the process – before acquisition, during acquisition, and after operations
    have commenced and, if necessary, relocation and rehabilitation arranged, and compensation paid.

    Colombia

    Colombia, apoyado en la hipótesis de que el comercio internacional es la fuente principal de crecimiento económico y de modernización institucional, opta por la exportación de productos agropecuarios en los que tiene ventajas comparativas. La política agraria en el modelo neoliberal (años 1990) se ha orientado a dichos propósitos. Este artículo se propone demostrar que dicha política, ha fortalecido la producción empresarial de cultivos tropicales en detrimento de la producción campesina.

    Décadas de escasa inversión pública en agricultura han debilitado la capacidad de los agricultores para hacer frente a la volatilidad de los precios, a los cambios climáticos y económicos, o para poder salir por sí mismos de la pobreza. Sin embargo, los donantes y los gobiernos deben considerar la inversión en agricultura como parte de la solución a largo plazo frente a las crisis alimentaria, financiera y climática.
