Training is key for rights holders’ ownership of UNDROP. It allows them to use UNDROP as an advocacy tool to defend their rights. Many peasants’ organizations and rural movements are organising training courses, seminars and workshops, and are elaborating training materials targeting rural organizations, but also civil society organizations, lawyers, judges, officials and states’ representatives.
