These initiatives serve to highlight the ingenuity of land rights civil society organizations in persevering to help communities during these extraordinary times. And while the world continues its battle against the microscopic enemy, civil society also continues to advocate for secure land rights which will lead to better food security and greater adaptive capacity during pandemics such as this one.
