The extension survey (TLSLSx) revisited a nationally representative subsample of the TLSLS2 between April and October 2008. The respondent for the justice module was randomly selected to be the household head or his/her spouse, and the TLSLSx revisited 1,716 respondents across Timor-Leste's thirteen districts. Survey topics included: (1) access to information and decision making; (2) opinions and knowledge of the law; (3) trust and local institutions; and (4) dispute resolution. Findings from this survey have been summarized in three short briefing papers focusing on land and conflict, youth perspectives, and community trust and decision making.CC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO LANDAGRICULTURAL LANDAGRICULTURECITIESCIVIL CODECOMMON PROPERTYCOMMUNITIESCULTIVATIONHOUSEHOLDSLAND ADMINISTRATIONLAND CLAIMSLAND MANAGEMENTLAND OWNERLAND OWNERSHIPLAND REGISTRATIONLAND RIGHTSLAND TITLELAND TITLESLAND TITLINGLANDSMEDIATIONMEDIATORNEIGHBORHOODSPERSONAL PROPERTYPOINTSPROPERTY DAMAGEPROPERTY OWNERSHIPPROPERTY RIGHTSRESETTLEMENTRURALRURAL AREASSITESTENUREURBAN AREASURBAN LANDVILLAGESWorld Bank10.1596/10927
