In the six months since the coronavirus began its global spread, more than 15 million people have been diagnosed with COVID-19 and more than 600,000 have perished, causing governments around the world to institute lockdowns and shut down businesses while entire industries have been devastated. This series of briefs, inspired by and sourced heavily from the Land Portal and Cadasta’s Leveraging Technology to Accelerate Land Administration During COVID-19 and Beyond webinar and discussion series as well as LANDac’s online hub on Land Governance and the COVID-19 Pandemic, spotlights a selection of these challenges, and provides suggestions for how they may be addressed.

About Landesa


Landesa partners with governments and local organizations to ensure that the world’s poorest families have secure rights over the land they till. Founded as the Rural Development Institute, Landesa has helped more than 105 million poor families gain legal control over their land since 1967. When families have secure rights to land, they can invest in their land to sustainably increase their harvests and reap the benefits—improved nutrition, health, and education—for generations.
