Landesa advances pro-poor, gender-sensitive land rights reforms through law and policy tools. These reforms have helped alleviate poverty, reduce hunger, and ease conflict over land for more than 180 million families. Secure rights to land boost agricultural productivity, improve health, nutrition and school enrollment, and have placed billions of dollars in new land wealth in the hands of rural people.
We were able to connect with Dr. Jolyne Sanjak, Sr. Director of Global Programs at Landesa, to dive deeper into how their programs are advancing food security in the communities where they work.
