Land administration is a powerful tool for equitable development, but its form and implementation are crucial for realizing this potential. This webinar will explore how a people-centered and holistic approach can transform 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.
We will also delve into the critical role of access to land data and information as a cornerstone of effective land governance. By empowering communities with data, we can foster transparency, accountability, and informed decision-making. This webinar will examine how to design land administration systems that generate and disseminate data in ways that are meaningful and accessible to all.
Key Discussion Points:
- How can we ensure that FFPLA truly serves the needs and priorities of local communities?
- What strategies can be employed to meaningfully involve marginalized groups in land administration processes?
- How can gender equality and social inclusion be integrated into FFPLA from the outset?
Land data and information for all:
- What are the barriers to accessing land data and information, and how can these be overcome?
- How can technology be leveraged to improve data accessibility and usability?
- What role can civil society organizations play in advocating for open and accessible land data?
Inclusive and equitable land administration:
- How can collaboration between land administration and the wider land governance sector be strengthened to achieve more equitable land outcomes?
- What are the key challenges and opportunities for integrating land governance considerations into FFPLA?
By fostering a dialogue between different stakeholders applying FFPLA approaches on the ground, this webinar aims to inspire innovative approaches to land governance that prioritize people and promote equitable access to land and its resources.
Participants will be encouraged to share their experiences and insights on people-centered land administration and to identify opportunities for collaboration and knowledge exchange.
