Executive Director, The International Land and Forest Tenure Facility

The Tenure Facility - Securing rights, protecting the world's land and forests http://thetenurefacility.org/

Location: Stockholm, Sweden - Visa sponsorship possible

The International Land and Forest Tenure Facility (?The Tenure Facility?) is a unique new institution that provides financial support to major projects designed to advance land and forest tenure security and the rights and livelihoods of Indigenous Peoples and local communities (IP/LC). It is responsive to the growing global land and forest tenure crisis that often pits communities, businesses, and governments against one another. The Tenure Facility is the first and only institution exclusively focused on securing collective rights to land and forests. The Tenure Facility is a unique learning platform where governments, private actors, and IP/LC learn together.

The Tenure Facility is designed to respond quickly and flexibly to the needs of Indigenous Peoples and local communities' organizations working with governments to secure collective land and forest rights, and is informed by and engages with the private sector as well as existing international instruments and institutions including REDD+, FIP, DGM, FCPF, multilateral banks, and bilateral programs. It is currently supported by the Swedish International Development Agency, the Ford Foundation and the Acacia Conservation Fund, and is actively seeking additional donors.

The Tenure Facility is being incubated by the Rights and Resources Initiative (RRI), based in Washington D.C. The Tenure Facility will become fully independent in early 2017. An Interim Board of Directors for the Tenure Facility was established in January 2016.
