Description

Background

There has been a significant increase in the number of urban developments and industrial plant expansions. The World Bank has come with detailed guidance documents on how each project should ensure it has access to the right land plots that it needs for its implementation. Various modern mechanisms have emerged, such as “public-private partnerships (PPPs), that can be a tool to get more quality infrastructure services to more people. Development must also consider fair and participatory cooperation from the communities that lie in line with the land expected to be acquired for a project. For communities, the spirit of their traditions, culture, and resilience is connected to the area in which they live. To ensure the successful implementation of a project, thoroughly assessed land acquisition must be considered as a key factor.

This course addresses the needs of all managers and officers who are involved in land acquisition and development projects. It can offer a unique learning opportunity to both public and private entities. Further, it is regularly updated with modern-day approaches and internationally recognized strategies.
