 I am Pranathi Das from Landesa. I work in the Orissa State Office of Landesa. I have come here to participate in this land and development conference over here. I presented on secure land rights and women's empowerment. I find this conference a good start. This is a very good platform to share exchange ideas and take the issues forward and elevate the issues to a level that we can find some solutions. I congratulate the organizers for this and we are glad that Landesa is one of the co-organizers of this. Landesa is working on various issues in India, specifically on four strategic objectives. One of these is securing land rights of the poor, working on women's land rights, land leasing and legal aid. Particularly in Orissa, we are working on land rights of single women. We are running a project called Women Support Centre that identifies single women and ensuring them land and social security benefits. I personally am involved in this project and I am also into a research on women's land rights and empowerment. This has been a great experience working in the field and Landesa is trying hard to secure land rights of women. We want the issue of land rights of single women to be recognized. Particularly the single women who live within the families, we want the governance system to be addressed to their needs. At least they should recognize their very existence and need and how they can get a piece of land. I think this conference has been very helpful in discussing issues like that. I am looking forward to a similar congregation of experts maybe next year.
