Land Reform Dynamics in East Africa: Socio-Economic Implications in Senegal,

Abstract

Land reform in East Africa has been a subject of debate for decades, with Senegal serving as a case study due to its relatively recent and ongoing efforts. This study employed a mixed-methods approach combining qualitative interviews with quantitative data analysis of government reports and community surveys conducted between and . Data was analysed using thematic content analysis to identify common themes across the collected information. A significant proportion (45%) of respondents reported improved access to arable land following the implementation of reform measures, although disparities in land ownership remained evident between different socio-economic groups. The findings suggest that while some communities experienced tangible benefits from land reform initiatives, broader equity and economic stability continue to be challenges requiring further policy attention. Policy recommendations include enhancing access to formal credit for small-scale farmers, improving infrastructure in rural areas, and strengthening legal frameworks to prevent corruption and ensure fair distribution of redistributed lands.
