Land Alliances for National Development (LAND) is a long-standing ILC global initiative aimed at strengthening country-level collaboration between government, civil society, bilateral and international stakeholders on land issues. Over the years, the programme has evolved linkages with other ILC programmes, such as the Land Reporting Initiative in Latin America and Asia, and the CALI programme in Africa.
Recognising the importance of evidence-based advocacy, ILC has now clearly oriented its support to CSO members toward research and generating knowledge that strengthens their advocacy and policy work, along with traditional approaches of campaigning and lobbying.
Within the LAND Programme, Collaborative Action on Land Issues (CALI) is a special joint initiative of ILC, IFAD, and the Belgian Fund for Food Security (BFFS; formerly the Belgian Survival Fund). This multi-year project focuses on supporting collaboration among government, civil society organisations, and rural stakeholders to address critical land tenure issues affecting the sustainable livelihoods of the rural poor. Currently, CALI projects are being implemented in Uganda, Niger, and Tanzania.
