The country has a land area of 118,480 square kilometres, with a maximum width of approximately 250 km and a total length of about 900 km (Msiska, 2001). Kasungu is a district located in Central Malawi, with a population of 735,836. It shares borders with Zambia to the west, Mchinji district to the southwest, Dowa and Lilongwe districts to the south, Ntchisi and Nkhotakota districts to the east, and Mzimba District to the north (Chavura et al., 2021). Since Malawi's independence, there have been instances of land deals and land grabbing in Central Malawi, including Kasungu district. These deals have involved the displacement of local people, lack of consultation with the affected communities, and insufficient compensation for resettlement from the government and investors (Bae, 2021). Kasungu district was chosen for a digital assessment project in 2013-2014 due to its high-density estates and to gather detailed information on the use of agriculture estates under leasehold titles, particularly focusing on the extent of farming using geospatial technologies (Luhanga et al., 2015). The district was selected because of its strong agricultural potential and the prevalence of patrilineal land tenure culture in some of its Traditional Authorities. Mphomwa village within Kasungu district was purposefully chosen for its significant prevalence of patrilineal culture (Matchaya, 2018). Background/ Problem : Malawi's first National Land Reform in 2002 stated that land should be decarnated and everyone own a clear title to land. In 2012, ten bills related to the land reform were published including the Customary Land Bill. In the process of passing the bill through was stopped because of the election of a new parliament in 2014 (Berg et al., 2014) Berge et al. (2014) argue that matrilineal and patrilineal land tenure systems obstruct a gender-neutral inheritance of land in Malawi but recommend that existing land rights should be recognized and circumscribed in a new land reform, because the current land reforms are too deeply seated in Malawi's culture. The informality of both systems creates an insecurity of land tenure for the growing group of people in Malawi who settle outside their lineage lands. (Berge et al., 2014). "The challenge for lawmakers is therefore to combine concerns about productivity (security of tenure), concerns about distributional justice (gender neutrality), and concern about security of personal identities (cultural precepts about legitimate allocation of lands)." (Berg et al., 2014). Women who own land both alone and jointly (% of women 15-49) 2.40% in 2016 and Men who own land alone (% of men) 42.9% in 2016 world bank 2016, 98 percent of women do not have any land, both solely and jointly, registered under their name (2016) according to world bank. Women have a very low level of literacy. "A well-designed land tenure system should aim to ease the transitions of diverse customary tenure systems towards the requirements of a modern largescale society." (Berg et al., 2014). Malawi is in a process for reforming the land since the 90's. The main goal was and is still to promote equitable land access, tenure security and efficient land use. Main problems were inefficient representation of the interests of the keyholders including smallholder farmers and women by the state (Chikaya-Banda & Chilonga, 2021). Gender-biased inheritance practices still adopted by most of the population and the informal land rental market create high tenure insecurity which leads to lack of sustainable investments in soil conservation (Lovo, 2016) "An effective land reform should consider introducing land rights in conjunction with addressing the distortive role of existing customary inheritance/marriage practices" (Lovo, 2016) "Gendered-bias inheritance practices, land-related investment is discouraged since the land user can be dispossessed of the land without compensation by the spouse's relatives who ultimately possess the land "(Lovo, 2016) "This study shows the importance of acknowledging the crucial role that such customary practices have in affecting tenure security and, consequently, the influence they have on land-related decision making. "(Lovo, 2016) Logical Framework for Land Rights Project in Malawi : 3 years project PROJECT SUMMARY: The main objective of the project is to empower and support civil society organizations (CSOs) in guiding the government to legislate a land reform that addresses the needs of smallholder farmers and women. The specific objectives Creating expertise in government and CSOs regarding land reform legislation and governance, Promoting policy engagement of women, youth, and marginalized groups, and representing the needs and interests of smallholder farmers and women within the land reform. PROJECT INDICATORS: Percentage increase in the participation of CSOs in governmental activities: Target: Increase CSO participation by 20% within three years. Percentage of positions (by sex, age, persons with disabilities, and population groups) in public institutions compared to national distributions: Target: Achieve proportional representation within 3 years. Number of education programs approved by the government: Target: Obtain government approval for at least two education programs within one year. Number of female smallholder farmers with documented and secure land tenure rights: Target: Increase the number of female smallholder farmers with secure land tenure rights by 30% within three years. Number of trained CSOs and government officials with an understanding of smallholders' and women's needs and interests in land rights: Target: Train 30 CSOs and 100 government officials within two years. Percentage of workshop participants reporting an increase in their understanding of political advocacy and lobbying strategies: Target: Achieve a 50% increase in understanding among workshop participants within six months. Number of operational national platforms promoting policy dialogue: Target: Establish three operational national platforms within three years. MEANS OF VERIFICATION: Government reports and documentation: Review official reports on CSO participation in governmental activities. Advocacy impact on policy changes influenced by CSO engagement: Monitor policy changes and assess the extent of CSOs influence.
