“Women’s Access to Land and Other Natural Resources in Indonesia”

How do the rural poor, and especially women use and value land and other natural resources? How do they benefit from them? What processes of empowerment evolve when women’s access to and control over these resources are increased and improved? This report by the Women’s Resource Access Programme (WRAP), a special programme of the Popular Coalition to Eradicate Hunger and Poverty, explores these issues in two of the three hamlets that make up the village of Malasari in Bogor District, West Java.
