Goal

To bridge the implementation gap between laws and policies on women's land rights in Uganda.

1. Transformation of discriminatory social and cultural norms preventing women from accessing, owning and controlling land
2. Increase funding and capacity for land management and administration institutions to support WLRs
3. Enhance awareness of the legal and regulatory frameworks on WLRs by rights holders, duty bearers, and community members
4. Enhance access to land justice for women
5. Strengthen participation, voice, and agency of grassroots women in land governance
