Global Land Tool Network (GLTN)

Everyone has a relationship to land, but not everyone's right to land is secure. The Global Land Tool Network (GLTN) recognizes that conventional ways of managing land are not realistically going to meet the needs of millions of people. This book features the “land tools” that GLTN  has developed – practical ways to solve problems in land administration and management. The emphasis is on practicality; users should be able to take a land tool and apply it (or adapt it) to their own situation.

Designing a pro-poor land recordation system is the first attempt to fill the gaps in the development of new forms of land recordation to assist the implementation of a continuum of land rights approach at scale. It is about the development of the initial design of a pro-poor land recordation system - a recording system aimed at supporting the recognition and protection of a range of rights of the poor. This publication emphasizes a co-management approach where the community performs a greater role in the design and management of the system.
