Inclusive Land Governance and Fit-for-Purpose Land Administration: Whose Purpose?

Inclusive Land Governance and Fit-for-Purpose Land Administration: Whose Purpose?
19 September 2024
Land administration is a powerful tool for equitable development, but its form and the way it is implemented are crucial for realizing this potential. This webinar will explore how a people-centered and holistic approach can revolutionize Fit-for-Purpose Land Administration (FFPLA) and ensure that land administration truly serves the needs of communities. By prioritizing the voices of local people, particularly women, youth, and marginalized groups, we can create land administration systems that are not only efficient but also just and inclusive.
