Consultative meeting paves the way for further support to Ethiopian land reforms

Abstract

Representatives of the Land Policy Initiative (LPI) and the Rural Land Administration and Use Directorate (LAUD) of the Ethiopian Ministry of Agriculture (MoA) engaged in a consultation meeting to explore areas of possible collaboration between the two institutions. The LPI and LAUD will examine the modalities to link LPI initiatives, such as the proposed African Center of Excellence on Land Governance (ACELG) and the LPI Capacity Development activities, to address the specific needs and interests of the Ethiopian land practitioners. Monitoring and evaluation of land policies and programmes was equally identified as critical for further collaboration.
