General
LAND-at-scale (LAS) aims to strengthen essential land governance components for men, women, and youth, with the potential to drive structural and inclusive change at scale. Good land governance is essential for achieving numerous development objectives, including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and can make a positive contribution to the Netherlands three main policy priorities for Development Aid: Security and Stability, Trade and Economy, and Migration. It ensures secure and equitable access to land, which is crucial for food security, agricultural productivity, and sustainable economic development. Effective land governance also strengthens the rule of law, contributes to trust between people and authorities (social contract), reduces conflicts and thus contributes to stability, and addresses climate vulnerabilities through participatory land-use planning. Secure land tenure, especially for indigenous peoples and women, can reduce deforestation and empower communities. Clarifying land (use) rights and improving land governance legislation and regulations create an enabling environment that is important for a conducive business climate. LAS focusses on the upscaling of successful pilot projects, or innovative interventions with upscaling potential, and invests in increased knowledge and learning. Dutch embassies in the focus countries and combi-countries of the Dutch Foreign Trade and Development Aid policy (roughly Sahel, Horn of Africa and MENA) are invited to submit leads for land governance interventions. The Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) acts as funds and programme manager.
