The document discusses the political economy of land and conflicts. It notes that securing land rights for all can help prevent and manage conflicts, as land is a source of livelihoods, wealth and a driver of power struggles. Understanding the various interests in land use and how competing claims are resolved is important. It emphasizes understanding shifting centers of power and interest groups, as well as considering women's land rights equally. A political economy lens is crucial, especially in contexts of poverty, weak governance and injustice, which can fuel conflicts over inequitable access to land resources. Legitimate dispute resolution mechanisms tailored to local contexts can help bridge divides and reconcile competing land claims.
