Protecting subsistence rights

Description

Protecting subsistence rights involves implementing legal, policy, and community-based measures to ensure individuals and groups can access essential resources—such as land, water, and traditional food sources—necessary for their survival and well-being. This strategy addresses threats from land dispossession, environmental degradation, and restrictive regulations by securing tenure, recognizing customary practices, and supporting sustainable resource management, thereby safeguarding livelihoods and cultural integrity for vulnerable populations.This information has been generated by artificial intelligence.
