Abstract

The Paper explores the intricate dynamics surrounding the recognition of forest land rights in sub-Saharan Africa, emphasizing its uniqueness when compared to grassroots communities worldwide. Through the lens of modern-day anthropology research and the integration of advanced technologies, the study aims to illuminate the complexities and peculiarities that have shaped the struggle for forest land rights in the region. The paper draws on a comprehensive review of literature, empirical evidence, and insights from key figures in environmental activism, presenting a holistic understanding of the historical, social, political, and economic factors influencing land tenure systems in sub-Saharan Africa.
