New ILC discussion paper - Increasing commercial pressure on land: Building a coordinated response

Increasing commercial pressure on land: Building a coordinated response

Launched during the DPRN Expert seminar Commercial Pressures on Land: Rethinking policies and practice for development, held in Utrecht in July, this paper takes stock of current understandings of, and responses to, commercial pressures on land by organisations within and beyond ILC’s membership. It outlines key current initiatives to engage with the phenomenon; comments on recent trends in land transactions; discusses ten myths that are commonly associated with ‘land grabbing’; outlines key emerging concerns that responses to the phenomenon should address; and puts forward some key considerations and questions for building a
coordinated response.
