Land Governance

Secure and equitable land rights are vital for Malawi’s social and economic development. The Natural Resources Justice Network (NRJN) champions fair land governance to ensure that communities, particularly marginalized groups, can access, use, and manage land responsibly and sustainably.

Our Approach

Policy Advocacy

We work with government and stakeholders to strengthen land laws, improve tenure security, and ensure transparent land allocation processes.

Community Education

We raise awareness about land rights, customary land practices, and legal recourse for disputes.

Conflict Resolution

NRJN supports mechanisms for resolving land conflicts peacefully and equitably.

Monitoring Land Use

We track land acquisition and usage to prevent exploitation, illegal encroachment, and environmental harm.
