FTF Ethiopia Land Governance Activity (Ethiopia):  Land remains a very important factor of production for pastoralists, smallholder farmers, and small entrepreneurs to escape poverty and food insecurity. Secure land tenure enables landholders to make longer-term investments into farming and agri-businesses, thereby contributing to increased productivity and incomes. It also allows pastoralists and farmers to lease their landholdings to entrepreneurs who need land to grow their businesses. In addition to helping landholders build more lucrative and stable livelihoods and move out of poverty, these leasing arrangements also have a spillover effect on the rural economy by increasing opportunities for high growth potential small and medium enterprises to provide services and employment opportunities.  ..Building on USAID/Ethiopia's previous investments to improve rural landholders', and particularly women's, land tenure security, the Feed the Future Ethiopia Land Governance Activity will work with customary institutions, rural landholders, and urban dwellers to adopt a scalable approach for land demarcation and certification. The approach includes the use of satellite imagery, simple and cost-effective land surveying and mapping tools, an integrated land information database, research, training, and professional services. The activity will work with key civil society organizations, such as the Ethiopia Land Administration Professionals Association, to improve the rights of landholders through increased advocacy, research, and technical assistance for land surveying, planning, demarcation, and registration. The activity's gender-sensitive approaches significantly improve women's tenure security and economic empowerment...By improving incomes and food security, social cohesion, and more equitable urbanization, the activity advances the USG Global Food Security Strategy......
