An innovative approach to land governance : moving beyond word processors to a logistical oriented implementation strategy
Black, Douglas
The world is in the throes of many rapidly changing environments. Among them is the economic environment. Due to economic stress, undoubtedly, funding from many of the donor organizations that have traditionally supported land governance programs designed to help other so called developing countriess will become more and more limited. This economic stress, unfortunately, coincides with the time when developing countries are beginning to recognize the necessity of good land governance as a means to manage their natural resources to benefit the population and reduce poverty. As potential funding sources shrink and necessity increasessstrategies need to be developed to utilize limited resources prudently. While acknowledging that there is no quick fix to the dilemma, this paperr looking through the lens of the implementation of a land governance project in the developing east African country of Mozambiqueewill explore an alternative strategy donor organizations within the international development community could consider that would help make efficient use of available funding.
