| description |
The importance of land governance in the
socio-economic development of a nation cannot be
overemphasized, as the allocation of land across competing
uses can determine the type and level of economic activities
that can be carried out by individuals, groups, and
businesses. The need for a systematic assessment of land
governance arises from three factors: policy importance,
institutional fragmentation, and technical complexity. The
land governance assessment framework (LGAF) was developed by
World Bank, in partnership with Food and Agriculture
Organization (FAO), IFAD, IFPRI, United Nation (UN) habitat
and the African union land policy initiative to facilitate
an analysis of this nature, will allow for the comparison of
the state of land governance in Sierra to global good
practices in key areas of responsible land governance. The
results of the LGAF in Sierra Leone will feed into the
ongoing voluntary guidelines on the responsible governance
of tenure of land, fisheries, and forests in the context of
national food security (VGGT) discussions. The World Bank
generally organizes a high level policy dialogue with the
government to discuss key conclusion and policy
recommendations. This report starts with a presentation of
the methodology used in the implementation of the LGAF in
Sierra Leone. It will provide an overview of the role of
land in the economy and the history and context of land and
tenure governance in Sierra Leone. It then presents the
results of the assessments, followed by for improving land
governance. Finally, it presents the policy matrix in
relation to land matters in Sierra Leone. |
