WORLD BANK HEADQUARTERS
Washington, DC
The World Bank Land Conference has catalyzed the global land community for over 20 years.
The Conference is the premier global forum for the land sector, bringing together over 1,000 participants from governments, development partners, civil society, academia, and the private sector to showcase policy-relevant research, discuss technical issues and sector good practice, and inform our dialogue. The Conference also aims to encourage cross-sectoral knowledge exchange and has incubated numerous investments, initiatives, and research projects led by diverse stakeholders, including the Voluntary Guidelines, the Land Governance Assessment Framework, and the Stand for Her Land Campaign.
The 2025 World Bank Land Conference will be held from May 5–8, 2025 in Washington, DC.
Land and Climate: Moving from Awareness to Action
The theme of the 2025 World Bank Land Conference is "Securing Land Tenure and Access for Climate Action: Moving from Awareness to Action."
Building on the momentum from the 2024 Land Conference, which highlighted the land sector’s relevance to climate change, the 2025 World Bank Land Conference aims to move from awareness to action by highlighting effective strategies for securing land tenure and access and to scale up land sector initiatives, investments, and policy reforms in support of climate change mitigation and adaption.
