  1. Managing land issues for sustainable local development:Notes for a policy research and action agenda in Latin AmericaMalcolm D. ChildressSr. Land Administration SpecialistPaul B. SiegelConsultantLatin America and Caribbean RegionSustainable Development NetworkThe World BankNovember 19, 2009

  2. A Global Land Administration Perspective From Enemark (2008)

  3. Recent evolution of land management tools and concepts From Wallace (2009)

  4. Main areas of intervention/programs/projects: • 1) Land Administration, titling and institutional-strengthening • Basic legislation and policy frameworks, land institutions, area and community-wide: cadastral surveys, improved registries and adjudication, administrative boundaries and governance, disputes. • Individual: regularization, registration, issuance of ‘titles’, transfers, subdivisions, inheritance, • 2) Land Taxation • Cadastral updating, valuation, notification, appeals • 3) Land-use Planning • Zoning, permitting, public investment planning, public land management, expropriation, protected areas, disaster risk management • 4) Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) • Platforms, standards, legislations, institutional requirements • 5) Land Reforms • imposed, negotiated, via restitution, via intervention in land markets (land funds); strong linkages with agricultural factor markets;

  6. BUILDING COMPLEX COMMODITIES From Wallace (2009)

  7. Hypotheses for improving sustainable developmentimpacts from land interventions in LAC—a policy research and action agenda. 1) High payoffs to improved monitoring and evaluation through spatial methods; cost-effective possibility to perform multiple monitoring and evaluation functions through geographic information platforms (spatial data infrastructure) 2) High returns for expansion of urban land projects linked to improved municipal finance, and “smart” governance; includes planning and financing for urban expansion to create affordable housing and replace informal settlement formation • 3) Large benefits to integrated land use planning and management as part of territorial development initiatives 4) Higher payoffs to multi-sectoral, territorial approaches for rural areas.(integrated land regularization and distribution with NRM, asset-transfers and market linkages) ; • 5) High poverty reduction and social development impact from land redistribution and/other forms of asset redistribution for poor agricultural and resource-sector households if well-targeted, demand-driven, commercially-oriented. • 6) High economic and social returns for specialized, well-defined land regularization projects in conflictual areas, informal settlements if based on participatory methods , low-cost technology and governance linkages. From: Childress, Siegel, Barham (2009)

  8. The promise of integrated spatial methods for embedded policy feedback and development planning • By using spatial information frames as a platform for cultivating “evidence-based practice” as the standard of monitoring and evaluating of impacts of diverse sets of outcomes (climate, infrastructure, disasters, resource management, agriculture, urban processes, crime, health) • By embedding policy-relevant questions and appropriate indicators of impacts in spatial data infrastructures to create long-term data series with multiple uses; • By “ground-truthing” complex causality of impacts using qualitative research and mixed methods to complement quantitative methods and encouraging participatory monitoring and evaluation to “grow” constituencies and capacity in territories, i.e., link research and participatory planning processes using spatial frames; • By considering positive and negative spillover effects on individuals and on institutions—regional spillovers are the essence of development or underdevelopment • By taking a broad sectoral and territorial approach to evaluate impacts linking regional data with household data.
