Conference on New Challenges for Land Policy and Administration

February 14-15, 2008 - The World Bank, Washington DC

 

In connection to the Social Development Week, the World Bank’s land policy and administration thematic group is organizing a conference of two days to facilitate an exchange of experience and lessons among practitioners in the area of land policy and administration.

 

Land tenure issues have been seen increasingly on many global agendas and the impact on economic growth have been broadly discusses. As a follow up of the latest developments, the objectives of the conference are the following (i) to obtain an update on the status of a number of important global and regional initiatives that have been launched in 2007 and to discuss possible synergies and alignment between them; (ii) to present the ongoing study on good governance in land administration, iii) to get a better understanding of the modern technology applied in land administration, iv) to share the challenges of land administration in the global agenda such as conflict resolution and global warming, and finally v) to explore options for our respective institutions to collaborate in helping to ensure that the impact of land interventions will be appropriately measured.
