Violence, displacement and inequitable land distribution remain problems in El Salvador. In these contexts, housing, land and property (HLP) rights are essential to achieving durable solutions and providing a foundation on which families and communities can rebuild their lives.

Based on in-depth legal analysis and quantitative and qualitative research, this report aims to highlight HLP needs and problems of the affected populations.

The study provides a legal analysis of key HLP laws and institutions, gives an overview of the on-the-ground reality for communities affected by displacement and highlights how gaps in these areas could be addressed.
