Establishment of an African university consortium for land information systems

The land in a continent as Africa is an economic resource, a basis of wealth promoting growth and human development, and a tool of empowering and governing. Most of native Africans are peasants and have their main living and fundamental infrastructures based on land and land resources. Then, land administrating and management which are largely tied to the diversity of the local cultural and traditional practicies should be enhanced in a good and scientific manner. For such purpose, african universities will play a major role in promoting a scientific revolution throught innovation and technology development. Certainly, every university has its own scientific community living inside or abroad.
