VGGT is “Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries, and Forests in the Context of National Food Security”. The VGGT consists of principles adopted by the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) in 2012.
These principles provide guidance for states, citizens, the private sector and civil society organisations on responsible management of and access to land, fisheries and forest resources. The purpose of the VGGT is to provide a framework for ensuring access to and acting responsibly in the management of these resources in a fair, transparent and sustainable manner.
