Community Land Trusts are a model of collective ownership of land that promotes tenure security, community strengthening and development for vulnerable populations. In this article, starting from the presentation of implemented experiences in the Global North and South, we analyze the organizational and conjunctural aspects that can contribute to its implementation in Brazil. After that, the Brazilian land tenure scenario is described, and also the first on-going experiment in Rio de Janeiro. The model, which still has few applications in the Global South, potentially represents an alternative to guaranteeing security of tenure and the right to housing in consolidated informal settlements. Inhabitants of these areas have their rights constantly violated and denied. Given the peculiarities of CLTs in the Global North and South, some lessons are suggested that can be drawn from the analyzed cases to facilitate the implementation of the model in Brazil.
