Grassroots Women Exchange Land & Leadership Tools
A Women’s Land Link Africa (WLLA) grassroots leadership team took part in a series of Peer-to-Peer Exchanges in Zambia with the Katuba Women’s Association, and People’s Process and Homeless and Poor People’s Federation of Zambia, from February 1st through 5th. The exchanges were held just prior to the 2010 WLLA Land Academy. During the exchanges participating grassroots women and men shared their successful strategies and stories on how women were able to gain control over land and property and improve their leadership skills, such as through women’s savings schemes, collective land purchase and local-to-local dialogues. Obstacles and challenges to women’s ability to gain, claim and maintain land and property were also addressed by all participating groups. Overall the exchanges were a great success...
