Building Food-Secure Communities Through Enhanced Tenure Security

This document aims to contribute to the learning process of the “Secure Access to Land and Resources” (SALaR) Project from the point of view of the partner IP communities. 

As such, the contents of this document are drawn from the reflections of the partner IP organizations arising from a series of focus group discussions (FGDs). Around 77 IP community representatives (leaders, women, youth, members) from the partner IP organizations provided their insights on land and food security, relevance, most significant change, fostering partnerships, sustainability, major challenges, key opportunities and lessons learned from the GLTN-ANGOC-XSF initiative on “Improving Tenure Security of Smallholder Farmers in Select Areas in the Philippines.”

Founded in 1979, ANGOC is a regional association of national and regional networks of civil society organizations (CSOs) in Asia, actively engaged in food security, agrarian reform, sustainable agriculture, participatory governance, and rural development.
