What should be done to ensure women's rights to land ownership are secured?

A 2020 report by Equality Now examining laws that discriminate on grounds of sex cited data showing that close to 40% of countries had at least one constraint on women's property rights. In 36 out of 108 countries widows were not granted the same inheritance rights as wiof assests as soodowers and 39 countries prevented daughters from inheriting the same proportions of assets as sons. Four women from Ghana, Tanzania, Malawi and Sudan sit down to discuss this important topic in length.
