FLC: Scaling up Amka Mwanamke (Woman Arise) Campaign in Response to Women?s Land Rights What to be done and why?The project intends to empower more women give them more voices to advocate for their rights for them to have full control over land resources.  In Tanzania customary practices often require women to access land through their father
s brothers husbands or other men who control the land. This makes women vulnerable and decreases agricultural productivity. When women lose their connection to this male relative through either death divorce or migration they can lose their land home and m
eans of supporting themselves and their families. Direct beneficiaries Direct beneficiaries: 5000  vulnerable women and girlsExpected impact:Proportion numbers of women in Muleba and Bukoba Districts have adequate access to and control over land resources.

r women. Increased access to information education and communication services and materials for women about land distribution land registration and land rights. Prominent people political and religious leaders local leaders and traditional land owners are
