Abstract:
Formalization of land ownership in developing countries tends to cement gender inequalities. In Peru we find the opposite: A large scale survey show 43 per cent joint ownership for titled land compared to 39 per cent for untitled plots. However, it is more than three times higher than the 13 per cent joint ownership in a similar survey from 2000. Gender equality might have become even more pronounced as joint ownership increases to 56 percent for the subsample of titled male-headed couple households.
