Influencing collective land tenure indicators: Burkina Faso, Kenya and Sudan case studies

Abstract

This technical report examines how collective pastoral land tenure operates in practice and how perceived tenure security can be better measured in communal land systems. Drawing on case studies from Burkina Faso, Kenya and Sudan, the research explores pastoralists' experiences of accessing, using and governing shared grazing lands under customary and formal tenure arrangements.

This work is part of the Supporting Pastoralism and Agriculture in Recurrent and Protracted Crises (SPARC) programme.
