Customary Land Tenure and Climate Justice In Kenya: Rights, Resilience, and Reform (1)

This book, "Customary Land Tenure and Climate Justice in Kenya: Rethinking Rights, Resilience, and Reform," offers a comprehensive and critical examination of the multifaceted relationship between Kenya's customary land tenure systems, the escalating impacts of climate change, and the imperative of achieving social and environmental justice. It argues that secure and recognized customary land rights are not merely a matter of historical redress, but a fundamental prerequisite for effective climate adaptation and sustainable development in a nation where community lands constitute the majority of the landmass and support the livelihoods of millions.
