Land rights refer to the legal rights and ownership that individuals or groups have over land, including the right to use, control, and transfer property. This area of research focuses on examining the laws, policies, and practices related to land ownership and access, as well as the impact of these factors on land tenure, land use, and land-related conflicts. Researchers in this field may investigate issues such as land tenure systems, land redistribution, land grabbing, indigenous land rights, and the impacts of land rights on development, poverty, and social justice. The goal of research on land rights is often to identify ways to strengthen and protect the rights of landholders, promote equitable access to land resources, and address land-related challenges and conflicts.
