Land Policy
LEI employ and encourage a flexible approach to developing land policy. We base our policy recommendations on empirical research, international experience of best practice and universally recognized principles of good governance.
LEI have experience examining the broad spectrum of policy and legal options available for securing tenure - from the development of long term land use rights, concessions, and provisional rights, to full Torrens title.
Our approach is to engage local beneficiaries and stakeholders in broad based policy dialogue to develop the most appropriate framework for protecting and administering land rights. LEI specialise in facilitating a workable mix between government policies, socio-economic plans and wider community needs.
Some key characteristics of our approach include:
- Engaging stakeholders and institutional partners at all stages of policy development
- Tailoring land administration systems to local socio-economic needs
- Designing polices consistent with long term development priorities
- Integrating land policies into wider governance reforms
- Adopting a client focused approach
- Embedding gender and social equity into policies
