INSTITUTIONAL ETHNOGRAPHY OF RIGHTS AND RESOURCES INITIATIVE: COALITION-BUILDING, STRATEGY AND LAND TENURE ADVOCACY
Established in 2005, the Rights and Resources Initiative (RRI) is a global coalition dedicated to promoting land tenure and policy reform for Indigenous Peoples, local communities, Afro-descendants and women. Through an institutional ethnography framework, this report analyzes the operations, successes, and challenges of RRI in order to synthesize strategies for tenure reform and document the perspectives of coalition members. As an influential organization in the field of land tenure, forest conservation, and environmental justice, understanding these factors will also inform members outside of the coalition as keys to success for strategies in coalitional land tenure advocacy.
