Mapping and framing security of tenure 2013, para. 81
Paragraph
Paragraph text
Conversely, such temporary permits could be a first step towards increased tenure security. For instance in Brazil, authorities can recognize, by way of leasehold rights to use and stay for an indefinite period, those individuals or communities who have settled on public land for at least five years-however these do not offer complete protection, as seen in the recent evictions of communities benefiting from such permits.
