Mediating Land Conflict in Burundi: A Documentation and Analysis Project was an assessment and evaluation project undertaken by ACCORD between July 2009 and February 2010. The purpose of the project was twofold. First, it explored how land conflict mediation addresses or relates to other more long-term challenges for peace in Burundi – principally, the utilisation of land and increasing access to sustainable livelihoods. In this context, emphasis was put on the triple-R challenges of the repatriation and reintegration of returnees, and reconciliation between different Burundian societal groups. Second, the project documented and analysed ACCORD’s land conflict mediation practice in the two Burundi provinces of Bururi and Ruyigi.

To this end, the following questions were answered:

in what ways do the activities of ACCORD Legal Aid Clinics contribute to the sustainable resolution of land disputes? What are the different types of solutions found? Are they sustainable?
what effect does ACCORD’s mediation work have on the reintegration of returnees and the reconciliation process in Burundi
