Description:
This toolkit seeks to strengthen understanding of property rights for women and men as equal citizens in Uganda, where this toolkit was piloted, on the understanding that property rights economically empower women by creating opportunities for earning income, securing their place in the community and ensuring their livelihoods. The toolkit addresses what rights women have, how to communicate women’s rights and the issues preventing women from exercising their rights. The overarching goals of the training are to increase knowledge of legal rights to property in Uganda; to recognize women’s and men’s equality before the law; and to enable women and men to exercise and protect their own property rights while respecting others’ rights.
