dc.description.abstractThis brief note inspired by the reports of other agencies, aims to define land grabbing as pertains to Africa and outline the scientific and ethical case against African governments allowing land grab that threatens soil fertility, water and food security. The paper also highlights the weakness of the CDM in providing a loophole to avoid direct reduction of emissions and leading to increased land grabbing. The note concludes with recommendations urging African government to exercise due diligence in protecting the rights and best interests of their citizens, and dissuading them from the danger of forfeiting the lands and birthright of current and future African generations.
