Publisher's Comments
The increased global demand for land has several drivers, volatile food prices, urbanization, and use of the land for environmental services--all of which points to a need for well-designed policies at the national level to ensure security of rights, facilitate land access, and more. The Land Governance Assessment Framework (LGAF) is a diagnostic tool and is designed as a first step toward helping countries manage those issues. The authors address why such a framework is needed, areas covered by the LGAF, methods for applying it, and five pilot cases. Authors are Deininger (lead economist, World Bank Development Research Group), Selod (senior economist, World Bank Research Development Group, land policy and administration thematic group), and Burns (land administration specialist, Land Equity International).
