Editor's Notes

  • #3: Layout: Content with Potrait Picture. Variation: alter the position and size of the picture
  • #5: What are the challenges? Reform: Content of rights (which set of the bundle is actually being recognized: titling vs. permits) Drafting regulations for implementation; establishing the (government) institutional infrastructure that will implement/grant the rights Implementation: Overlap of rights (sub-soil rigths; carbon rights; land/forest rights) Overlap in the institutional mandate (who is the government entity with the authority to grant the rights) Meeting requirements: Over regulations – high transaction costs Granting: Land clearing (saneamiento) Conflicts Outcomes Benefits to livelihoods Forest conditions Tenure security External Threats Collective action
  • #6: Saneamiento: resolution of disputes inside the claim I’m going to give just a few examples of challenges in a few countries, some of the most typical, in Reforms, Implementation/ granting and in Outcomes/ After titling. Challenges on the REFORM itself, Indonesia is our best example… a reform to date that has failed to recognize customary rights, only granting co-mgmt and temporary rights, and finally a constitutional reform, but with a very challenging process ahead in terms of figuring out exactly what that means, exactly what institutions will be set up, what will be permitted.
  • #26: https://www.globalwitness.org/sites/default/files/deadly%20environment%20embargoed.pdf “Between 2002 and 2013, 908 in 35 countries are known to have been killed because of their work on environment and land issues.. Brazil is the most dangerous place to be defending rights to land and the environment with 448 cases, followed by Honduras (109) and the Philippines (67)” Global Witness, 2014: Deadly Environment
