We face great challenges in terms of food security for a growing world population and the need for sustainable development. This symposium will address the role of land consolidation and land readjustment in relation to these challenges. It will give participants the opportunity to discuss strategies for sustainable development and to design resilient landscapes that meet the needs of society. The symposium will focus on four themes that can be addressed from a historical perspective, from current developments and from the expected needs in the future.
The symposium provides a unique opportunity to share your knowledge and experiences with fellow scientists and practitioners working on land consolidation and land readjustment from all over the world. We have an attractive programme with a mixture of keynotes, technical sessions, field trips and social activities. The organising institutions (FIG, FAO, the Dutch Cadastre, Land Registry and Mapping Agency, and LANDNET) cordially invite you to join the event.
