This How To Do Note (HTDN), prepared jointly by IFAD’s Land Tenure and Youth teams, presents the challenges and opportunities for young people seeking to access land for employment and entrepreneurship in the rural sector of the developing world. By understanding the different ways in which youth can access land and exploring good practices from recent initiatives, this note aims to inform the design and implementation of IFAD-supported country strategic opportunities programmes (COSOPs) and projects.
How To Do Notes are prepared by IFAD’s Strategy and Knowledge Department and aim to provide country programme managers, project design teams and implementing partners with practical suggestions and guidelines to help them design and implement programmes and projects. They present technical and practical aspects of specific approaches, methodologies, models or project components that have been tested and can be recommended for implementation and
scaling up. The notes include best practices and case studies that can be used as a model in a particular field.
