    Why Land
    Many of the solutions to the world’s problems lie right before us, in how land is governed and managed. Sustainable and equitable land use elevates ecosystems and communities. It builds democracy, justice, sustainability and resilience.

ABHIYAN NEPAL

Member since: 2011

Working towards these commitments

Respect, protect and strengthen the land rights of women and men living in poverty, ensuring that no one is deprived of the use and control of the land on which their well-being and human dignity depend, including through eviction, expulsion or exclusion, and with compulsory changes to tenure undertaken only in line with international law and standards on human rights.
1

Secure Tenure Rights

Ensure equitable land distribution and public investment that supports small-scale farming systems, including through redistributive agrarian reforms that counter excessive land concentration, provide for secure and equitable use and control of land, and allocate appropriate land to landless rural producers and urban residents, whilst supporting smallholders as investors and producers, such as through cooperative and partnership business models.
2

Strong Small-Scale Farming Systems

Ensure gender justice in relation to land, taking all necessary measures to pursue both de jure and de facto equality, enhancing the ability of women to defend their land rights and take equal part in decision-making, and ensuring that control over land and the benefits that are derived thereof are equal between women and men, including the right to inherit and bequeath tenure rights.
4

Equal land rights for women

Ensure that processes of decision-making over land are inclusive, so that policies, laws, procedures and decisions concerning land adequately reflect the rights, needs and aspirations of individuals and communities who will be affected by them. This requires the empowerment of those who otherwise would face limitations in representing their interests, particularly through support to land users' and other civil society organizations that are best able to inform, mobilize and legitimately represent marginalized land users, and their participation in multi-stakeholder platforms for policy dialogue.
7

Inclusive decision-making

Mission

Abhiyan Nepal’s mission is to empower the impoverished, exploited and discriminated citizens of society to gain access to their rights via the tools of facilitation and advocacy. Abhiyan Nepal envisions a peaceful, happy, prosperous and self-dependent society in which every human being lives a glorious, self-reliant and dignified life.

Objectives

To facilitate access to and control of the means and resources of production and to help to improve the lifestyle of those individuals and groups that are devoid of basic rights. Furthermore, the organization aims to sensitize, organize and mobilize the women, men and children of those classes, community and regions which have been excluded from the development process. Finally, it advocates and brings these issues to the public debate in order to influence national and international polices.

Constituencies

Abhiyan Nepal works with women, children, Dalits, minority groups and other people who are economically, socially and politically outside the mainstream, such as those living in poverty, plowman farmers and landless people.
