La Vivienda representa m�s que un techo bajo el cual vivir. La vivienda digna es necesaria para el ejercicio de derechos fundamentales como la salud y la educaci�n. Atado a la vivienda est� el tema de la tenencia de la tierra. Millones de personas a la altura del siglo 21 viven en asentamientos informales y carecen de vivienda digna. Este libro explora el crecimiento global de los fideicomisos comunitarios de tierra y c�mo esta forma de tenencia colectiva de la tierra y vivienda asequible a perpetuidad ha provisto hogares dignos para familias de ingresos bajos y moderados. Veintis�is ensayos de autores de una docena de pa�ses evidencian tal crecimiento y la participaci�n de las comunidades para que los fideicomisos respondan a sus necesidades espec�ficas.

Land that is owned and managed for the common good is a hallmark of community land trusts. CLTs are locally controlled, nonprofit organizations that steward permanently affordable housing (and other assets) for people of modest means. This book explores the global growth of CLTs in twenty-six original essays by authors from a dozen countries.
