dc.description.abstractThe study assesses how women of Bru-Vân Kiều ethnic group in the central part of Vietnam benefit from sharing legal land titles with their husbands. It also examines influences of traditional and cultural norms regarding land ownership and marriage on women’s perceptions of their land rights and their ability to claim land entitlements. Results indicate that the joint-title land tenure certificate (LTC) has not brought about economic benefits to women from the perspectives of welfare and efficiency because it does not impact women’s access to credit, diversification of livelihood strategies, or increase farm productivity. World Bank policy regarding women’s land rights is contested by these research findings.en
